I’m in Oregon, where everyone gets to vote by mail (or drop off their ballot at specified drop sites, which is what I did yesterday). Voted straight Democrat for the first time in my life.
I’m a teacher at a CC, so all my students are adults. Not 10 minutes ago I polled my classroom on who voted as a not-so-subtle reminder that Today Is The Day. The response? Not. A. Single. One. Of. Them. Voted!!!

One of my students, after I asked if everyone had voted, started going on a rant about taxes, I have no idea what her political bent is, but she made it clear that she’s intensely against every manner of taxation. Well, there’s a tax measure on the ballot this year. Instead of voting against it, she worked herself into a tizzy and decided not to vote.
What. The. Fuck???
And before someone mentions the Damn Kids These Days, she was the oldest in the room. Gaa!
