A vote is an expression of opinion by ballot,
show of hands, or other means. In systems
that employ direct vote, the plebiscite and
referendum are fundamental mechanisms. In
parliamentary elections the results can be
calculated in a differnet number of ways. The
age of 18 has now been adopted by most
countries, but a few have adopted an even
lower figure. The age qualification in Iran
for presidential elections is 15. To be able
to vote in the USA is also 18+.
