There are some incredibly smart kids that know more than the average adult about worldly topics and politics. Perhaps, when younger aged, they can write a short and simple test to show their competence in order to vote.

It matters less about age and if they actually understand party policies and how that will affect the country.

Old people shouldn’t be able to vote (80+) because they will die before they see the effects of their vote
@9ZTXY873wks3W
Voters should be required to take a test proving they understand politics before voting. If they pass, regardless of age, they can vote.
@9ZMK8WW1mo1MO
yes, rather than age, voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote

16 should be the youngest age. If they start voting before leaving home, they may continue after they leave home. I so badly wanted to vote at age 16.

Yes, and there should be a maximum voting age after which voters get disenfranchised. If you have no stake in the future, your opinion does not matter.
@9YNCRS71mo1MO
No, there should be a test demonstrating their basic understanding of politics but if failed should only warn the individual they shouldn't vote but still let them
