Argentinian lawmakers passed a new measure Wednesday lowering the nation's voting age to 16.
Representatives in the South American country's lower house overwhelmingly voted in favor of the law Wednesday. A majority of senators approved it last week.
The move to lower the voting age from 18 to 16 comes a year before a key mid-term election in Argentina, and some critics have said it's an attempt by President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner and her party to garner more votes.

What do you think?

Are you saying because you don't care no one who's 16 should be able to vote?

However, I agree it's a bad idea.
