Kamala Wants Lower Voting Age [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 2 November 2025 | John Semmens

Former Vice-President and unsuccessful Democrat nominee for president in 2024 Kamala Harris wants the voting age to be lowered from 18 years-old to six-years old. "Look, the children of today fear that climate change will wipe out their future," she said. "They will be the biggest victims of the catastrophic damage done by global warming. They should have a voice in choosing who will be making climate policy. The only way this can be accomplished is to enable them to cast ballots for the Democratic Party."

"By the age of six most children are in school and learning to read," she pointed out. "Their teachers are also orally presenting information detailing the destructive consequences that will follow from the laissez-faire energy policies of the MAGA Republicans. These same teachers could help students fill out their ballots, collect them, and drop them off at polling places."

"Democrats and socialists are the only ones offering sensible reforms to combat this looming disaster," Kamala added. "We are ready to mandate replacing gasoline vehicles with electric vehicles. We are ready to shutdown coal, gas, and nuclear power production and replace them with clean solar and wind-generated electricity. The naysayers who want to block progress cleverly fail to acknowledge that it is the sun which makes life on Earth possible and that for thousands of years oceangoing vessels were solely powered by free and nonpolluting wind. We can reclaim these lost arts. But this won't happen if we exclude the most affected generation from having the ballots they need to force a change in policy."

Does she have any questions as to why she didn’t make it in the last election?

If we allowed fetuses to vote, maybe Democrats would not be so quick to want them dead. If they vote the right way, of course.

Keep lowering the voting age and soon we will be at the WILD IN THE STREETS(1968) level. I read the short story “The Day It All Happened, Baby!” by Robert Thom,in Esquire Magazine back in 1967.
Personally I believe the voting age should be raised to 21 as it was for almost 200 years. Except for those under 21 in the Military.

She didnt get the memo from Bill Gates.

And this is one of her most nonsensical quotes yet. We don’t let 16 year old vote because they lack adult discernment. But because they’ve been indoctrinated since they were little, they’re now able to discern between competing candidates and policies. It’s incoherent, but then again that’s our girl

Lowered to her mental age, we’d have first graders in the poll booths.

Edith Bunker has a higher IQ than Kamala Harris.

Is that pandering or what? Taking kids that haven’t graduated high school and telling them they have to vote for the democratic party when so many of them are illiterate or not
fully educated as recognized with a high school diploma as it is the minimum standard, should be considered child abuse.

She needs 10 or 11 years old to vote because then she can be smarter than her constituents.

Let children vote, even those in the womb. If we could get the aborted, fismembered ones to speak this side of death, all the better.

How about a citizenship test to vote?
