    As the title says, I got a slip in the post yesterday so that I could vote. It was addressed to me and no-one in this household has a similar/easy mistaken name.

    Im only 17, so Im not really sure whats gone on here.

    Anyone else experience a similar thing?

    There was one sent to a 4 year old at the last election and i seem to remember a 6 year old lad getting a 12 grand tax bill a few years ago as well.

    The legal voting age is 16.

    The voting age in the UK is 18, not 16.
