Proposition 18 permits 17-year-old's who will be 18 at the time of the next general election to vote in primary elections and special elections. This would pave the way for 17-year-old's who qualify to vote under this proposition to seek office, because the law says only registered voters can run for elected positions. Voting yes to proposition 18 could increase interest and voter participation among youth and is a simple way to raise the voices of young voters. Plus many 17-year-old's already work and pay taxes and are allowed to join the military so voting if they are eligible makes sense. Please take action and sign this petition to vote yes for proposition 18.
