Senators Back 18-Year Vote Amid Voting Rights Debate
In Washington a Senate hearing features Barry Goldwater and Edward Kennedy arguing that Congress can lower the voting age to 18. They differ on tying it to the Voting Rights Act debate, with Mansfield proposing an amendment and others urging a separate statute or constitutional route.
