17. I cried like a baby when I was filling out my ballot

My grandmother was nine years old when the Eighteenth Amendment was ratified. She didn't live to see this day. My mother didn't live to see this day. My daughter, on the other hand, is alive and early voted for Madam President. I felt like I was voting for all of them.

Thank you for sharing your story. #strongertogether
