And I always voted at my party's call, and I never thought of thinking for myself at all.

As I said, I spent most of my adult life thinking I didn't have a vote, and therefore that what I thought didn't matter.

I vote in every general election, but I'm not a party member or an ideologue. I've never told anyone who I've voted for.

I don't vote party lines. Never have. I vote for the best candidate.

I do vote but I don't think that any political party represents my point of view.

I have never voted in my life.

As a personal matter, I stopped voting more than a decade ago, on the grounds that it helped me as an analyst not to think about making a choice in the voting booth.
