Youthful Massachusetts Candidates Are Opposed
In Boston the teen hopefuls marching to the Massachusetts State House faced strong opposition from Secretary of State Kevin H. White. He cited a 122 Massachusetts Supreme Court decision and warned that while running at 16 or 18 may be legal, holding office requires 21. White called the teen efforts a political travesty and pledged to block their path to Beacon Hill, citing misguided and premature political activity by youths. The youth movement began with a 16-year-old declaring intent to run, followed by three more teens and a 16-year-old girl joining the march.
