A Maine legislative panel in April approved, then reconsidered, extending voting rights to 17-year-olds. Similar legislation is being considered in Texas and California, and has been debated in Minnesota.

It used to be age 21 to vote. I just happened to be born at the right time that when they changed it to 18 I was able to vote the first November after my 18th birthday. I voted for Richard Nixon that year (1972).

So, I wonder how young a voter the 'RATS wanna ultimately do ? Is 8 too young ? How about 4 ? ...

How ridiculous. It seems like another case of the LIBERALS trying to gather more votes for themselves ...
