Mass. lawmakers considering bill to let 16 and 17-year-olds vote in local elections
(AP) — Massachusetts lawmakers are weighing a proposal that would give cities and towns greater leeway in allowing 16 and 17-year-olds to vote in municipal elections.
The bill wouldn’t lower the voting age statewide, but instead, let cities and towns extend the franchise to 16 and 17-year-olds without having to seek permission from the Legislature.
Honestly, would you allow this; wasn't it just recently that these same kids thought that eating Tide Pods was a way to get high.
