Jobbik Proposes Constitutional Amendment to Lower Voting Age

Europe National

The opposition Jobbik party wants the voting age to be lowered to sixteen, a lawmaker of the nationalist conservative party said.

The party has submitted a bill with the aim that by the next general election in 2022 young people can cast ballots, György Szilágyi, the party’s deputy leader, said. “We’ll be determining Hungary’s future for many years and decades ahead, so it’s important this choice is made as broadly and clearly as possible.”
