We already have special legal statuses for mentally incompetent people. If one is an adult and of a sound mind they should be able to vote. A less legally and socially problematic solution to this problem would be voter education campaigns. This is far from a perfect solution but it is more palatable to me then poll tests that could be socially biased and unfair. If this test were to apply to local as well as for federal elections just imagine the potential for abuse.
