Democrats Want to Lower the Voting Age

Some localities are now allowing people as young as 16 to vote in their elections, and some Soros-backed groups want to take those policies nationwide.

Minority groups have been a critical demographic for Democrats for years, but now they're slowly but surely shifting to the right. Democrats' plan to replace those votes may likely be to allow more and more ballot access for 16 to 17-year-olds.

While it would take a constitutional amendment to allow those under 18 to vote in federal elections, some localities in Maryland and California are already allowing people as young as 16 to vote in municipal races.

The Remembrance Project's Maria Espinoza told KTRH, "Now the Democrat Party is scrambling to find new voters, because those who traditionally voted for the Democrats are leaving in droves."

Espinoza thinks that because the Democrats largely control the education system and have become so effective at indoctrinating young people, they will be able to easily persuade them to vote for Democrats. But Espinoza says the burden of being a voter is something that 16 to 17-year-olds just aren't ready for, and they should be allowed to just be kids.
