"The Democrats are talking about giving the vote to 16-year-olds, but let's do this instead," Vance said in the speech. "Let's give votes to all children in this country, but let's give control over those votes to the parents of those children.

Most Democratic candidates have not announced support for allowing 16- and 17-year-olds to vote.
