I'm 16, and I live in Virginia( I will be 17 in May)
I was wondering if I am eligible to vote in the 2016 Virginia primary
The law says you must. "Be 18 years old (any person who is 17 years old and will be eighteen years of age at the next general election shall be permitted to register in advance and also vote in any intervening primary or special election)."
When it says you have to be 18 by the "next" general election, do they mean the upcoming one, or the one next year? Again, I'm 16 now, and I'll be 17 in May. Can I vote in the primary?
