Should the voting age be raised?
Considering that people are "kids" for longer and longer these days (people don't start "adulting" until they're in their 30s now practically), does it makes sense to have 18 year olds vote anymore?

No it should be 18. In Austria is 16 (which I think is a tad bit young). I think it's good because evidently the vote will have a stronger impact on the younger generation then the older, so it makes the kids have some say. What happens sometimes, though, is that parents influence their child's vote or they just don't vote at all at a young age.
There needs to be more campaigning and what not geared towards the younger generation and they will get more involved
