Should people under the age of 18 be allowed to vote? Do you think it is unfair that you can't? Leave a comment with 3-5 sentences explaining how you feel and why. Due Monday, November 10, 2014.
I do think people under 18 should vote because teens like sixteen or fifteen are not mature some are but most are not they won't vote for what they believe in because they don't know what they believe in they will just vote for whatever every one else is voting for. Also kids like us twelve or eleven can't vote because some of us act so childish we won't even vote for anything good we can vote for the worst political and that would make ri worse but I'm not saying all kids are childish some are every mature but a lot are not so that's why I think people under 18 shouldn't be allowed to vote - Jazzlyn.

I think people under the age of 18 should be allowed to vote because every one has the right to. Just because we're kids dosen't mean we have to be excluded out of everything. Everyone should be able to vote for what they belive in. People might say"oh they are to immature to vote" or they might say"there to young". I belive everyone gets the same chance as everyone else and that no one should be underestimated because of there age or looks. Thays why i think people under 18 have the right to vote!!!!
I think people under 18 shouldn't vote for many reasons.One reason, is that they put the rule 18 and over for a reason. Yeah we all have are own opinion but are we mature enough.I'm not saying all adults by law are mature cause trust me they are not.That's my opinion what's yours. By Isis Garcia
If your under the age of 18 you shouldn't be able to vote. I think this because they wouldn't take it serious. They would just vote randomly because they wont care. They probably wouldn't understand why we vote too. -Emani Correia
I think people under 18 should be aloud to vote because us kids have our own dicision to decide for our future mayor,candidate,presidents ect. Some people think teens our immature but not all teens are. Sometimes they exclude us kids for what is important I think its unfair. Whenedy Gonzalez. period 5 11/6/14
I think kids under the age of 18 should vote because even though people say kids are to little or are to young to understand whats happening we do. Many kids like my age are already mature enough to know what they think sometimes even adults think kids don't know much and in reality they know more than they should know about or know more than the own adults. Even kids that don't act mature in class can be smart enough to know what type of people there are out there and know if they are good or bad for a president or mayor. Many adults underestimate kids and that is not fair because kids know better. Even adults that are 18 and older are less mature than a 10 year old kid. So I think kids should be allowed to vote because even kids have their rights and no one is perfect so there is no mistake in voting for someone because in the end if you don't like the person you could always choose again next year, right?
yes kids under 18 should be able to vote beacause we have our rights to believe, speak and vote. i believe 95% or 19/20 ( out of ) of the world is smart and will choose the right president or the governent. Samantha Allen 11/7/14
I believe that kids under 18should vote because we have our rights and yes we're under 18 but its the United States we just want wants best for us. Also we should vote because the United States only hears the people that are 18 and up and some of thoses people aren't to bright to pick whats best for us . That is what I think about kids under 18 should vote . BY BRENDA GARCIA SANCHEZ
I think kids under 18 should vote. They should vote because when parents want to vote they vote for things they want they don't think of there kids when they vote. Sometimes kids shouldn't vote because they write stupid things that they are not suppose to do. They should put cameras and see what the kids are doing.
(kayla Afonseca) I think that not all ages should be able i think the rules about voting are fine just the way they are.Here are some reason. One reason is that a parent might let there child vote and the child might just right candy land or something else. Another reason is that a child might not take it serious and might right on wales.that was why i think the role that you have to be 18 to vote should stay like that.
I think if you are under 18 you can not vote.Why i think kids will not really understand that voting is a big thing , they might pick the wrong person.There is another problem is that kids will get over whelmed and not make a dissension. That is why I pick kids under 18 should not vote
I think kids under 18 should vote because for example only men could of vote but now it's both men and women can. They should do that for kids under 18 too. That is why kids should vote
I don't think that the voting age should be lowered for many reasons. Here's why, people in our generation would not vote for what they want they would vote based on how the person looks or how they act. Like some girls they would vote just because the candidate has nice hair or has the newest clothes. And some boys will both for some women just because, well, they're boys. Our generation doesn't really know what we want yet. Therefore we should not be handed such a large opportunity just to waste it and elect someone who shouldn't be there just because of their appearance. Only a small percentage of our generation really thinks about politics and things like this and would like to vote. Because of people who don't take these things seriously is well why the aged cannot be lowered. This is why I think that the voting age should not be lowered.
I think that kids under the age 18 should vote because we have rights and oppinations just like all the adults in the United States.Also their would be more votes than there are usually in votes.Kids also could have a opportunity to act mature and be resonpable to make the right choice.

I think people under 18 should not vote because they would take it as a joke. yeah some 18 year olds would take it seriously. some people don't really understand how important voting is. it is better off not letting 18 year olds vote because they are too immature . Victoria Galarza
I think that children should not be able to vote but I also agree with luisa because before only men could vote but now both genders can vote well ....now I have 2 answers yes and no because kids are very smart for their age .But some are so not smart and ack so cray cray so not all children should vote.They should make it from 10 and over so their would be two answers so thank you yerieliz and luisa for ideas ;)
I think that people under 18 should not be allowed to vote because the smaller and not mature people may pick the people that may make things worse instead of better.But on the other hand the people that are mature and do know what they are doing may have the write to vote but even though they might be choosing the one you might think is the person that will do us good. They can be over voted or what ever like when the other person has more votes than you do.
