I voted for the first time this week! It was just the city elections, but still kind of exciting. I feel concurrently old and young at the same time, old because I'm voting!!! And young because my friends who are older than me have already voted several times. The whole process reminded me very much of my experiences with YMCA's Youth and Government program, which I attended in 2010 and 2012. The program definitely changed the way I view policy and helped me come to a greater understanding of it. I'm not about to become the next politician, but I am definitely grateful for the experience Y&G afforded me and my first voting experience was a positive one.
