In 1971, the Twenty-sixth Amendment set the legal voting age at 18 for both US federal and state elections.
Moves to lower the voting age to 16 were successful in each of the three British Crown dependencies from 2006 to 2008. The Isle of Man was the first to amend its law, when in July 2006 it reduced the voting age to 16 for its general elections, with the House of Keys approving the move by 19 votes to 4.he 26th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prevents states from denying suffrage to 18-year-olds, but does not prevent states from establishing a lower voting age. Several states (Georgia, Kentucky) already allowed 18 year olds to vote prior to passage of the 26th amendment.
