I’m in favor of moving it to 21 plus active military.

“I’m in favor of moving it to 21 plus active military.”

I agree moving voting back to 21 . My first vote was in NY 61 years ago. We had to be 21 to vote and 18 to drink. We now have it backwards. Lets go back to the “good old days”

Not everyone can serve in the military

Bad eyes, some sort of injury, too short, too tall, feet too big. So they should be prevented from voting?

I can see raising the voting age to 21 or better 28. When they complain that they can buy beer at 21 but not vote then raise the drinking age.

Having military service as a requirement to vote would be as heinous as letting 16 year old kids vote.
