I'm heartily in favour of lowering the voting age to 16 or 14. Mostly because it seems like a terrific way to introduce civics into people's lives at an earlier age. Most people I know simply didn't vote between 18 and like 40.
On a larger level, I'm pretty concerned by the appeal of anti-democratic forms of government and the influence of authoritarians in western democracies. Civic engagement seems like the best way to combat that to me.
