The 26th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution grants the right to vote to any U.S. citizen who is at least 18 years old. Previously, the voting age in most states was 21. The amendment was ratified in 1971, in response to the Vietnam War and the argument that if 18-year-olds were being drafted to fight, they should also have the right to vote.
