IMHO,

Since anyone with a Cell-Phone, 
or in the future an Implant
(who knows what? Hell my refrigerator 
is connected to the Net, thanks to IPv6 
why not me next).

'Eligible Individuals' are all 
those who come-of-age to Vote.
Not that it is restricted to 
those who are 18 and older, for 
this has some objectionable problems.

For example: many of those who 
are between the ages of 18 to 21 
feel its unfair that they can 
vote but not drink alcohol 
(engage in Adult activities), 
similarly Younger than 18 year 
olds feel left out of participation.

To avoid this I would suggest 
that the Eligibility be 
structured into classes. 
For instance; ages 5-15 class I, ages 
16-25 class II, ages 26-55 class 
III, ages 56-1oo+ Class IV.

The designation of Classes may 
or may-not effect the 'Group-
Class 'dependant on the condition 
of the referendum item.
