Liberal Democracy

Agree

Yes

Liberal democracy values the inclusion of all citizens in the political process. Lowering the voting age could be seen as a way to increase political participation and representation. However, there is no consensus among liberal democrats on whether the minimum voting age should be lowered, as some argue that younger individuals may lack the necessary maturity and understanding of politics.

Slightly agree

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

The idea that any citizen who pays taxes should be allowed to vote aligns with the principle of 'no taxation without representation,' which is a core tenet of liberal democracy. However, this answer does not directly address the question of whether the minimum voting age should be lowered. Some liberal democrats may support this idea, while others may argue that age is still an important factor in determining voting eligibility.

Neutral

No

Liberal democracy does not inherently support or oppose the current minimum voting age. The focus is on ensuring that all citizens have the right to participate in the political process. Some liberal democrats may argue that the current voting age is appropriate, while others may advocate for lowering or raising it.

Disagree

No, it should be raised

Raising the minimum voting age would likely be seen as a restriction on political participation and representation, which goes against the principles of liberal democracy. While some may argue that older individuals have more experience and understanding of politics, raising the voting age would likely be seen as undemocratic and exclusionary.

Strongly disagree

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

Requiring voters to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics would likely be seen as a barrier to political participation and representation, which goes against the principles of liberal democracy. Such a requirement could be seen as elitist and exclusionary, as it may disproportionately affect certain groups of people who have less access to education or resources to learn about politics. Historically, literacy tests and other similar requirements have been used to disenfranchise minority populations, which is contrary to the values of liberal democracy.
