In reply to the discussion: THREAD: Your experiences voting [View all]skip fox
(19,356 posts)62. I first voted in Wood County at 18 years old 1968.
I remember two of my write in: Dick Gregory for president and Eldridge Cleaver for sheriff.
Very uplifting and I keep telling my students about it, trying to encourage them to vote. How great it feels at 18, etc.
