She's still older than average (which is 55 yrs): https://potus.com/presidential-facts/age-at-inauguration/

I don't think that age is everything, but I feel like it is a significant factor.

At the very least, it is very frustrating as a younger person that the vast majority of our lawmakers are _very_ old. This has (historically, but not recently) been more of a problem with congress: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/aging-congress-boomers/

As a (just) boomer, I'd be in favor of having the voting age lowered to 16. Certainly there are many reckless, feckless and uninformed 16 year olds, but the standard of debate coming from the seniors in the room is horrifying and needs to be diluted by the people who have the biggest stake in our planet's future.

This is happening in the UK. It was in Labour’s manifesto (and they were recently elected)

Why would lowering to 16 from 18 make a difference? Plenty of data out there shows that age demographic is the least likely to show up on election day and vote.

Perhaps then the ones that did take the trouble to vote would be well informed and thoughtful.

There is some evidence getting people to vote earlier results in them being more consistent voters over time. And they would potentially be fresh off a civics class.

That's interesting. I'll have to dig into this.

Ah but according to this average, Zuckerberg is too young.
