The voting age in Austria was lowered to 16 in 2007, when I was already 20 years old.
That means that I was not able to vote in many important 2004 elections, such as President, EU elections and the Salzburg state election.
...
The elections I voted in since July 2005 (when I was 18) are:
2006 Federal
2008 Federal
2009 Salzburg State
2009 Salzburg Municipal
2009 EU
2010 President
2013 Salzburg State
2013 Federal
2014 Salzburg Municipal
2014 EU
The most interesting of those was probably the 2006 federal election, in which it was assumed that the Conservatives (ÖVP) would win the election, but on election day the Social Democrats (SPÖ) defeated Chancellor Schüssel.
