Six Republican members of the Connecticut House of Representatives switched their votes on an important bill to expand youth voting. The bill would allow seventeen year olds to vote in primaries if they will be 18 in time for the general election.
H.J.R. 11 is a constitutional amendment to allow seventeen year olds to vote in primaries if they will be eighteen in time for a general election. The measure needed three fourths of the members of the House and Senate to make it onto the statewide ballot in 2008. When it began to appear the measure might pass by that margin, six Republican members flipped their initial "yes" votes to "no" in an effort to keep the measure off the statewide ballot in 2008.

way to go guys. This is just the beginning. Wait until you see what they do to you when you grow up. Politics is dirty business & hopefully you can stop that someday.
If all Democrats voted Yes on this bill and/or were actually present for the vote, this would have passed with flying colors. But the creators of this video don't care to point that fact out unfortunately.
