9. Same. Since gaining the franchise in 1976 I have never missed voting in an election.

Even little municipal elections with almost nothing on the ballot.

I always vote. My wife always votes.

And since he was a baby we've taken our boy with us to the polls (until Covid). He first helped me ink Obama (twice) in 2008 and (finally, turning 18) he gets to vote himself this Fall.

Definitely motivated.
