The correct answer is:
A. Younger voters are less likely than older voters to be registered to vote and less likely than older voters to cast a ballot.
Explanation: Historically, younger voters (typically those under 30) have shown lower registration rates and turnout compared to older voters. This trend can be attributed to various factors, including less engagement in political issues, lack of information, or logistical challenges related to voting. Encouraging younger people to participate more actively in elections is an ongoing focus for many civic organizations.
