My parents always took me to the polls when they voted. Some of my earliest memories are of helping my mom and/or dad pull the levers when they used to have the old time machines. All I can remember thinking is, like all children watching their older people do something they can not yet do, “I can’t wait until I can vote.” I have never missed an election, save perhaps a school district election on a Saturday a couple of years ago. Otherwise, I vote.
And I think it is a learned behavior.
