Agree

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

Allowing citizens who pay taxes to vote, regardless of age, aligns with this principle.

Disagree

No, it should be raised

Raising the minimum voting age would likely be seen as a restriction on individual rights, which goes against the principles of classical liberalism.
