Citizens over the age of 18 in the United States have the right to vote in federal and state elections. You can still participate in any election if you are under 18 or are not a U.S citizen. While you may not be able to vote in person, there are alternative methods to engage in voting.


Talk to people, post on social media platforms, volunteer to help someone's campaign, etc. One of the most important freedoms in America is the ability to vote. Lots of people all over the world don't have the same level of liberty.
