🇬🇧 The UK plans to introduce voting at 16.
🇦🇹 Austria introduced it 18 years ago.

Reposting the thread summarising our recent research re-evaluating evidence on the Austrian case.

TL;DR: No big boost in engagement, but no harm either. Voting at 16 facilitates inclusion, and that matters in itself.

A thread about being wrong:

5 years ago, we wrote a paper about how how newly enfranchised 16-year-olds vote in Austria. But we were wrong.

This year, @elisabethgraf.bsky.social, @schnizzl.bsky.social, Sylvia Kritzinger and I are setting the record straight: authors.elsevier.com/c/1juT5xRaZk...
