Agree

Yes

The Australian Labor Party has not officially endorsed lowering the voting age, but some members have expressed support for the idea. For example, in 2015, Senator Jordon Steele-John proposed lowering the voting age to 16. However, this has not become a mainstream policy within the party.

Agree

No

The Australian Labor Party has not taken a strong stance on maintaining the current voting age, but they have not actively pursued lowering it as a major policy. Therefore, they might somewhat agree with keeping the voting age as it is, but this is not a strong position within the party.

Slightly agree

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

While the Australian Labor Party has not specifically advocated for allowing any tax-paying citizen to vote, they generally support policies that promote inclusivity and democratic participation. However, this idea has not been a major focus for the party, so their agreement with this statement would be weak.

Strongly disagree

No, it should be raised

The Australian Labor Party has not shown any interest in raising the minimum voting age. They generally support policies that encourage greater participation in the democratic process, so it is unlikely that they would advocate for raising the voting age.

Very strongly disagree

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

The Australian Labor Party would strongly disagree with requiring voters to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote. This policy would likely be seen as discriminatory and against the party's values of inclusivity and equal access to the democratic process.
