The age limit is just an excuse to ignore us. We learn about civics in school so let us actually use it.
No taxation without representation right? If I have a job and pay taxes from my paycheck I should get a vote.
This is actually a pretty smart idea. Most adults I know don't even bother to research the candidates anyway.
kids pay attention to what happens in the world too. why should my future be decided by people who wont even be alive when i am my parents age?
10 might be a little young but definitely by 16 we should have a say. we are the ones who have to live with these laws the longest.
