Should voters have to pass an iq test ?

Very interesting findings here from the BBC website following the Brexit vote analysis

So, should voters need to pass an IQ test to show that they understand what they are making a decision on ?

This could be a lively thread !

Maybe a few basic multiple choice questions (like, who is the Prime Minister) on the ballot paper to show that you have a basic understanding of what you're voting on & if you get any wrong then your vote doiesn't count.

I can't find a mention of IQ in your link.


And no they shouldn't, anyway. That should be obvious to anyone who has an IQ.

if most can't find the polling booth and put a X in a box ,you figure it out...maybe it's time to have text votes . The conservatives won in Cumbria with less than 18% of the electorate. What a nonsense ,it's all Crazy and sad.

Ok, were there really such people, they would be too stupid to vote, in a way.

Voting is voluntary, in a free country.
