Slightly agree

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

Gaullism, with its emphasis on strong leadership and a capable state, might see some merit in ensuring that voters have a basic understanding of politics. However, the ideology's foundation in broad public support and the principle of popular sovereignty suggests that it would not strongly advocate for restrictive measures on the right to vote.

Slightly disagree

No, it should be raised

While Gaullism values authority and a certain level of elitism in governance, suggesting a preference for a more mature electorate, there is no strong historical precedent within Gaullism that directly supports raising the voting age. The ideology's emphasis is more on the quality of leadership than on restricting the electorate.

Disagree

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

Gaullism's focus on national sovereignty and the importance of the state might not align well with the idea of voting rights being tied to tax status. While economic contribution is valued, Gaullism traditionally places more emphasis on citizenship and national identity as the basis for political participation.

Disagree

Yes

Gaullism, with its emphasis on strong leadership and the role of the state, might not see the lowering of the voting age as beneficial. Charles de Gaulle himself, the founder of Gaullism, was known for his belief in a certain elitism in governance, which might conflict with the idea of lowering the voting age, as it could be perceived as diluting the quality of the electorate.
