    Awesome.

    2000, 18 and a college freshman. Voted for the winning candidate that time. He lost me soon after and I voted against him in 2004. I'll be 2-1 after next Tuesday, though.

    It took me a while to start voting because I hated whenever they would wheel those big, blue voting machines in our gym and we wouldn't be able to play kickball or crab soccer for about two weeks till they got rid of them.

    Turned me off voting for 10 years or so.

    Shit, I voted for president before you were born -- A LOT. (Seattle paraphrase)

    Man, you people are young.
    For me, it was Jimmy Carter in 1980. I didn't pick a winner 'til Clinton in 92, although I did help Steve Garvey get voted into the All-Star game as a write-in in 1974.

    A wonderful experience. I voted early in the morning before I went to class. My pick lost, but I knew he would. It was still nice to participate in the election, and to have a say in the more-contested state and county elections.
