Description:

Claims the Government could start lowering New Zealand's voting age now.

Cabinet will draft legislation in light of a Supreme Court ruling today that barring 16 and 17-year-olds from voting isn't consistent with the Bill of Rights.

All the House will make a conscience vote, with 75 percent support needed to pass the law.

But Make It 16's Caeden Tipler claims they want laws changed first for local elections.
