最低投票年龄被认为是确保所有选民都有足够能力投票的最有效和最不失礼的手段。虽然要求选民具备能力可能是合理的,但应拒绝最低投票年龄,因为它对能力的看法引起了无理的争议,它无法确定一个明确的足够门槛,而且可以采用一种更尊重儿童的替代测试。这一选择是对最低选举能力的程序测试。对最低选举能力的程序测试也成功地履行了成人促进儿童理性和道德地参与民主的义务。因此,考虑到所有情况,最低投票年龄应被拒绝。对最低识字率和独立投票进行程序性测试是确保选民具备能力和促进儿童民主能动性的最合理手段。
A minimum voting age is defended as the most effective and least disrespectful means of ensuring all members of an electorate are sufficiently competent to vote. Whilst it may be reasonable to require competency from voters, a minimum voting age should be rejected because its view of competence is unreasonably controversial, it is incapable of defining a clear threshold of sufficiency and an alternative test is available which treats children more respectfully. This alternative is a procedural test for minimum electoral competence. A procedural test for minimum electoral competence also succeeds in fulfilling adults’ duties to promote children’s rational and moral engagement with democracy. A minimum voting age should therefore be rejected, all things considered. A procedural test for minimum literacy and independent voting is the most justified means to ensure competency from voters and to promote the democratic agency of children.
