As a 15 year old, I got into politics and started learning more on my own. I would’ve jumped at the opportunity to vote at 16, though many of my peers would’ve shrugged it off. If high schoolers didn’t care, they wouldn’t vote because it takes time and effort. You’d be giving opportunity for political involvement to intelligent, passionate young people. They’re more knowledgeable about the world than a lot of adults (they are in school, after all). Soon I will be able to vote, in just two weeks. My opinions have not shifted majorly at all. Let them vote.
