Electoral District (2011):
@9VDFQK57mos7MO
It should be raised and you should have filed and paid your taxes the previous year in order to vote.
@9RBY3RC9mos9MO
Not something to be based from age but rather from self-experience. Citizens should have to educate themselves futher, or atleast be educated by our governments further on politics in the country.

I think it depends on maturity level.

It should be mandatory to vote once you have reached legal voting age
@998RR682yrs2Y
Very dependent on situation
@989YBSC2yrs2Y
Those who have the knowledge, perhaps take a test for underagers who would like to vote
The voting age stays the same, but any foreigner that is new and wants a say in voting (and is paying taxes) can vote, maybe just a year before the minimum voting age.
@B4L879K1wk1W
No, 18 is around the time where you are an adult, and not to mention our frontal lobes aren't even developed fully until 25 years of age. Any younger than it already is would just allow people who are not matured enough to vote in elections
