Yep, same reason they love illegals and anchor babies. This would get them the anchor baby vote 2 extra years.
“The right of citizens of the United States, who are eighteen years of age or older, to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of age.”
Frankly you should only vote if your 25 or older. Maybe even 35.
Simple solution … they belong to no state therefore DC residents lose the right to vote for President if they do this. Their elector is rescinded.
They’ll vote about as often as 18 year olds do. Maybe less.

Why not the lunatics are in charge of parts of the asylum.
It does not prohibit a state from setting a voting age of less than 18, it only states that citizens 18 and older cannot be denied the right to vote.
You saw the future. LOL.
Ok, have it your way .. but do get back to us when the courts refuse even to hear it.
“We’re gonna put everybody over twelve out of business.”
“More GOP votes ?”
No way. With the educational programming being done by the libs in our “so called” public school education it is just another way to pad the voting registration with either an un-knowledgeable or immature thinking brainwashed child whose life time has not supplied them with the experiences or practicalities important to decision making on a grand scale like a presidential decision.
Learning how to drive a car, which is the only adult thing assigned to them lawfully, they can do but you see with the statistics of the mortality rates of youth drivers in this country, and the world, how that is a failure in itself.
According to the CDC, among drivers between 15 and 20 years of age who were involved in fatal crashes in 2016, 32% were speeding at the time of the crash and 21% had been drinking. In 2016, young people ages 15-19 represented 6.5% of the U.S. population. However, they accounted for an estimated $13.6 billion (8.4%) of the total costs of motor vehicle injuries. This sound like they are mature enough to make decisions as a whole? And remember, this is not a selective process to “promote them to adulthood, it is blanket.

Are they ready to be drafted? To be held accountable as adults in court cases? That’s how 18 year-olds rate the privilege of voting.
