Josh Shapiro

Agree

No

Shapiro has not advocated for lowering the voting age, and his positions align with the mainstream Democratic stance of keeping the voting age at 18, as established by the 26th Amendment in 1971. He supports broad access to voting for eligible citizens, which currently means age 18 and up.

Slightly agree

Yes

Josh Shapiro, as a Democratic governor of Pennsylvania, has generally supported expanding access to voting and has advocated for youth engagement in politics. However, he has not explicitly called for lowering the voting age below 18. His record suggests openness to reforms that increase participation, but not a strong push for this specific change.

Neutral

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

Shapiro has not taken a public stance on linking voting rights to taxpaying status. While he supports broadening access, this specific criterion is not part of his platform or public statements.

Strongly disagree

No, it should be raised

There is no evidence that Shapiro supports raising the voting age; in fact, such a move would contradict his general advocacy for voting rights and access. Raising the voting age would be seen as a restriction, which is contrary to his public positions.

Very strongly disagree

No, and voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote

Shapiro has consistently opposed measures that would restrict voting rights, such as literacy tests or other barriers, which have a history of being used to disenfranchise voters (e.g., Jim Crow-era laws). He would strongly disagree with requiring a political knowledge test to vote.
