I think that no voter should have to take a test to show they are educated. To me a test is only half of a whole that shows you are educated on that specific subject. You can do horrible on your math test but when it comes to having to use those principles in real world scenarios it might come clearly to you. That being said I know it doesn't have much similarity to a math test.
Just in short I would want a voter to educate himself and not have the worry of just passing the test when the essential worry should be about the right canidate. To me I could see the test taking away from the critical decision of the vote.
Also on a side note I personally don't think anyone should vote straight party. To me that almost takes away our right and gives a certain party power. To me that seems illogical. But thats just me.
