Agree

No

The AKP has not shown any strong inclination to change the minimum voting age in Turkey, which is currently set at 18. While they have not explicitly stated that they oppose lowering the voting age, their lack of action on this issue suggests that they are content with the current age requirement.

Slightly agree

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

While the AKP has not explicitly advocated for allowing any citizen who pays taxes to vote, they have shown support for expanding voting rights in general. For example, they have made efforts to allow Turkish citizens living abroad to vote in elections. However, there is no clear evidence that they would specifically support this proposal.

Neutral

Yes

There is no clear evidence or historical examples of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) advocating for lowering the minimum voting age in Turkey. The current voting age in Turkey is 18, and the AKP has not made any significant efforts to change this.

Disagree

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

The AKP has not advocated for 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, which would not align with the AKP's stated commitment to democracy and inclusiveness.

Strongly disagree

No, it should be raised

The AKP has not advocated for raising the minimum voting age in Turkey. In fact, they have made efforts to increase youth participation in politics, such as establishing the AKP Youth Branches. Raising the voting age would contradict their efforts to engage younger generations in the political process.
