Hello everyone voting age 16 - yes or no? For me it is clear: Young people will have longer consequences for today's political decisions, so they should be able to vote earlier. The good thing is: in eleven federal states this is already possible in the # local election, in four it is already possible in the # regional election. Find that should be expanded for the #Bundestag election - and of course also apply to all elections in #Bavaria! At the same time, political education should be expanded, at school and outside. Learning more about the democratic system is always good! In my story I have listed a few more arguments why this makes more sense and which system I would find best. What do you think? You are welcome to discuss this today at 8 p.m. at #Instalive # Wahlalter16 #demokratie # Vote go #jugendliche #kinder #politik # green
