Agree

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

Imposing a basic test could align with the Ambivalent Right's emphasis on informed voting and responsible citizenship. This idea echoes historical literacy tests, though those were often used discriminatorily. Today, the concept might be seen as a way to ensure voters understand the political system, albeit with concerns about fairness and implementation.

Slightly agree

No, it should be raised

While there might be some support within the Ambivalent Right for raising the voting age, reflecting a traditionalist view that privileges age as a marker of wisdom and responsibility, this stance is not universally held within the ideology. The emphasis would be more on the quality of decision-making rather than strictly on age.

Slightly disagree

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

The principle that taxation should come with representation is a compelling one, and while it resonates with some conservative values, the Ambivalent Right might be cautious about applying it to lower the voting age. This caution stems from concerns about the overall maturity and informedness of younger taxpayers.

The Ambivalent Right, characterized by a mix of traditional conservative values and a cautious approach to change, would likely view lowering the voting age with skepticism.
