It is illogical. Legislatures make laws not judges. He has zero authority to do this.. The las saw 18.. Period.

See post 137. It was the legislature that made the law allowing 17 year olds to vote in the primary. Not the judge. The judge strictly interpreted the law as written. It is the legislature’s job to change it, not the Secretary of State’s. There is no federally mandated minimum voting age. The Feds only say that 18 year olds can NOT be denied by the states from voting based on age. It makes no mention of those younger, meaning a state CAN prevent (or allow) younger kids from voting, but they aren’t mandated to do that.
