18. The voting age was lowered to 18 in time for the 1972 elections... |

and Nixon was re-elected to the shock and horror of the anti-war movement, who assumed that the draft age "youth" would turn out the vote..
it apparently wasn't enough.. or maybe there was massive election fraud then too and none of us realized it.. we just accepted that the Nixon won in a "landslide".
