This Petition is to encourage the Youth of NSW to take an active role in the political system by allowing them the choice of voting in state elections. However this measure would be an OPTIONAL vote until the age of 18 (Current legal voting age) is reached.
I stress again that it would be an OPTIONAL vote, and no-one is under any obligation to use this vote.
Any signature is much appreciated.
If i can work and pay taxes at 16 i should be allowed to have a say in who runs the state. makes zero sense that im excluded when these laws affect my future the most.

YES! so many teenagers are more informed about current events than adults anyway. keep it optional so the people who actually care can show up.
