Nope! Most people who vote now need to be more grown up.

We have kids in their 30s not able to keep a job and they can vote. They can't even set an alarm clock to get up to go to work yet!frustrated

Not quite 50 but I get your point. If the age gets lowered Sony's PS3 would be our new national symbol instead of the Bald Eagle. laugh

Actually being discussed over here at present...

Not quite convinced it should be....at present voting age is 18......

probably we are going to have a trial situation with voting being extended for 16 year old in the local council elections and see how that works out first....
