AP US Government
Unit 3 – Civil Liberties and Civil Rights
Topic 3.6
How might American politics be impacted if the Twenty-Sixth Amendment, which lowered the voting age to 18, was never ratified?
Everyone under the age of thirty-five will be banned from voting.
There might be a smaller electorate leading possibly to less representation of younger people's interests in political decisions.
People below eighteen years would have started voting as well.
Voting rights would only be reserved for senior citizens above sixty-five years old.
