Teen-Age Vote Grows Up Down South
The teen-age vote becomes a major political force in the southeast led by Georgia Governor Arnall who backed 18-year-olds voting. South Carolina followed with primaries, while Alabama's Gov-nominee James E Folsom pledged to permit 18-year-olds. The movement boosts campus politics and youth influence in recent primaries, with notable young congressmen and veterans shaping southern politics.
