Do you think there should be an upper age limit on voting?

There is a minimum age to vote - do you think there should be an upper limit too, as those at the other end of the spectrum are down to their last decade or so of life and shouldn't get a say in major decisions affecting all those generations behind them that will have to live with the consequences (i.e. Brexit and the divide between how the older / younger generations voted)

Republicans already have seen to that in their constant effort to suppress votes. By requiring state ID's like Driver's Licenses they have already restricted who can vote. Anyone who is in a senior center and no long drives--or who is disabled at any age and never did drive (or don't anymore)---lost their right to vote because they cannot produce a driver's license at a polling place. People of that age--or disabled don't have passports either because they are no longer able to travel---so the Republicans have already screwed those segments of society.

Why? Because disabled and seniors overwhelming depend on Medicaid......and in a Republicans mind if you use or need Medicaid you are automatically a socialist.....so you MUST be a Dem voter. So to make sure those people don't vote Dem--or even take a chance they might--Republicans placed a drivers license restriction on them in state after state-----and then disguised that screw job as "we MUST do this to make sure those dreaded illegals don't vote"...........when they can't anyway. The "Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996" takes care of that issue and it's never been repealed......so the "drivers license requirement to stop Mexicans from voting" was just another GOP con job.
