Agree

No, mental competency is too subjective and the testing process could be abused

Agree

Yes, and politicians of any age should be required to pass a mental competency test

Slightly agree

Yes

However, there is no specific historical reference that directly links the EDP to advocating for mental competency tests for older politicians.

Slightly agree

No, our government needs experienced leaders

Slightly disagree

No, this discriminates against older politicians

Disagree

Yes, and ban anyone over the age of retirement from running for office

The EDP would likely strongly disagree with this statement, as it directly contradicts principles of non-discrimination and inclusivity. Banning individuals from running for office based on age alone would be antithetical to the democratic values the EDP champions.
