Strongly disagree

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

The Outsider Left would likely oppose this idea as it could be seen as a form of gatekeeping that could disproportionately affect marginalized and less educated populations, echoing historical literacy tests used to disenfranchise voters. This stance is informed by a commitment to broadening, rather than restricting, access to democratic participation.

Very strongly disagree

No, it should be raised

Raising the minimum voting age would be strongly opposed by the Outsider Left, as it would be viewed as a regressive measure that restricts democratic participation. This perspective is informed by historical and contemporary struggles for suffrage expansion, where lowering barriers to voting has been a key goal.
