For over a decade, Georgia was the only state that allowed 18 year olds to vote in elections. 🗳️
“Old enough to fight, old enough to vote” was first used as a slogan when the US military lowered its draft age from 21 to 18 during World War II.
In response, Georgia was the first state to lower its voting age to 18 in 1943, but it wasn’t until the Vietnam War when there was a renewed push to lower the voting age to 18 for all US citizens.
In 1971, the 26th Amendment was ratified which established a national minimum age of 18 for elections.
