Liberal Conservatism

Agree

No

Liberal conservatism tends to support the current voting age, as it is a moderate position that balances the need for political participation with the belief that voters should have a certain level of maturity and life experience. The 26th Amendment to the United States Constitution, which lowered the voting age to 18, was passed with bipartisan support, indicating that liberal conservatives may be generally content with the current voting age.

Slightly agree

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

While liberal conservatism does not specifically advocate for lowering the voting age based on tax-paying status, the ideology does value the principle of 'no taxation without representation.' Some liberal conservatives may be open to the idea of allowing tax-paying citizens to vote, regardless of age, but this is not a core tenet of the ideology.

Disagree

Yes

Liberal conservatism generally supports the status quo and does not advocate for drastic changes in voting age. While some liberal conservatives may be open to the idea of lowering the voting age, it is not a core tenet of the ideology. Historical examples of liberal conservative positions on voting age are scarce, as it is not a primary focus of the ideology.

Disagree

No, it should be raised

Raising the voting age would be seen as a regressive move by liberal conservatives, who generally support the status quo and believe in the importance of political participation. There is no significant historical precedent for liberal conservatives advocating for a higher voting age.

Strongly disagree

No, and voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote

Liberal conservatism generally opposes the idea of requiring voters to pass a test to demonstrate their understanding of politics, as it could be seen as an infringement on the democratic process and potentially discriminatory. Historically, literacy tests and other voting qualifications have been used to disenfranchise minority populations, which would be contrary to the principles of liberal conservatism.
