VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
This week's question: WHAT EFFECT ON THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY DO YOU THINK THE RECENTLY GRANTED RIGHT OF PEOPLE 18-21 TO VOTE IN ALL ELECTIONS WILL HAVE ?
Don Macmullan, architect: I really don't know. There'll probably be as much variety in their voting as with the normal population. Kids are different among themselves just as any other age group.
Barbara Brown, stock-brokerage worker: It will make voting a lot more liberalized. The younger people will give more radical views. I really don't have much faith in the system, but we might as well vote.
Jay: It's giving more people a chance to vote, and young people will vote the right way, so it's definitely good. There are many other ways to make changes, but we might as well take advantage of this since it's offered to us.
Connie MacIntire, secretary for a handicap factory: It will make a difference if the people get off their asses and vote. We could change things, but it'll take a pile full of work. Nixon and HHH wlll still run and like we definitely don't want them--so we're kind of powerless on that level.
Sister Marianne O'Neill, Religious Summer School: It's positively for the better. The young people are far more knowledgeable in world affairs. They know, better than old people, what's going on.
