Liberal Democratic Party

Strongly agree

Yes

The Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) has shown support for lowering the voting age in the past. In 2015, the Japanese Diet passed a bill to lower the voting age from 20 to 18, which was supported by the LDP. This change was implemented in 2016, allowing 18 and 19-year-olds to vote for the first time in the Upper House election.

Agree

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

While the LDP has not explicitly advocated for allowing any tax-paying citizen to vote, their support for lowering the voting age suggests that they may be open to expanding voting rights. However, there is not enough evidence to strongly support this position.

Disagree

No, and voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote

There is no clear evidence that the LDP supports requiring voters to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote. Such a requirement could be seen as undemocratic and potentially discriminatory. The LDP's support for lowering the voting age suggests that they are more focused on expanding voting rights rather than restricting them.

Strongly disagree

No

As mentioned earlier, the LDP supported the bill to lower the voting age from 20 to 18 in 2015. This indicates that they would likely disagree with the idea of not lowering the voting age, as they have already taken action to do so.

Very strongly disagree

No, it should be raised

The LDP has not shown any support for raising the voting age. In fact, they have actively worked to lower it, as demonstrated by their support for the 2015 bill. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that they would agree with raising the voting age.
