Summary/Abstract: The present study is based on the analysis of citizens’ right to vote, one of the most important fundamental rights of a citizen. In order to form a comprehensive perspective on the subject, historical aspects of the right to vote are initially addressed, as well as its current regulation at both the national and regional levels. At the same time, the idea of revising the Constitution of Romania has been discussed in the Romanian political scene from the perspective of the minimum age for exercising the right to vote, which is constitutionally established in article 36 of the Fundamental Law. We hope that the study will provide a clear answer from the perspective of the right to vote and in accordance with the current needs of Romanian society.
