In favour of universal suffrage
Channel 4 News has just had an item on lowering the voting age to 16. All well and good – but is there any principled argument for having any restriction on voting age at all? We already have a system in place to allow those who, for example, can’t read, to be assisted in the voting booth. I don’t see why that couldn’t be extended to babies – and you’ld get much prettier spoiled ballots.
