I voted yes because:

1) At 16, they pay income tax - can you say "taxation without representation" anyone?

2) At 16, they face adult charges when committing a crime - we say that they
are not mature enough to vote, but they mature enough to get adult sentences?

3) 98% of all our elected officials act like 12 years.

Agreed on all counts
