Buenos Aires (CNN) -- Argentinian lawmakers passed a new measure Wednesday lowering the nation's voting age to 16.
Representatives in the South American country's lower house overwhelmingly voted in favor of the law Wednesday. A majority of senators approved it last week.
The move to lower the voting age from 18 to 16 comes a year before a key mid-term election in Argentina, and some critics have said it's an attempt by President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner and her party to garner more votes.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
