MP Zahra calls for postponing vote on legal voting age for 6 months

Lebanese Forces bloc MP Antoine Zahra reiterated what the LF leader Samir Geagea and MP George Adwan said earlier Saturday and that is the lowering of the voting age should be linked with the issues of granting Lebanese expatriates the right to vote wherever they are residing

During an interview with LBCI television he said that his bloc will request postponing the issue of lowering of the voting for a period of 6 months.

Lebanese Speaker Nabih Berri has called for a parliament session on Monday to discuss amending Article 21 of the constitution to lower the legal voting age from 21 to 18.
