According to our law in Denmark you are only allowed to vote when you are 18 because that is the only day they think we are just a little responsible. No there are still thosse idiots who treat other worse than s**t and btw some of us is still just a little responsible as a 16 year old to vote but nooo they just have to choose 18 where most of them become sick as those street drivers. Oh well there law not mine. Now how about you how old must you be to vote and do you agree with it or not and why?

I know I'm going to be lynched for this, but I almost feel it should be 21. I listen to alot of youth voters and I can't believe the things I hear. The uninformed decisions made are enough to terrify you. now I know there are exceptions, there are younger voters who are very informed, and there are older voters how are idiots, but over all, the youth of this nations is scaring me.

I won't lynch you but I will support you as long as you throw in there that they shouldn't be able to join the military until they are 21 as well. I don't know how anyone at 18 knows that they can join and actually know what they are getting themselves into. Heck I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up until I was 27 lol

You know, sometimes I feel it should stay at 18, but then they have kids driving at 16, so why not vote? they can check out the internet, determine the better choice and go from there. Perhaps my eyes were deceiving me, but I thought I saw some young folks at the recent conventions, and I thought that was cool. Then again, them youngsters might put someone in office that ain't worth squat, but then again, I wonder about those over 18 as well.
