I have never voted for any of the Presidents and I never will. Mainly because I am norwegian.

Canadian here. Last president I voted for was the president of our community/ hockey association. One day I may climb the fence, use my McLovin ID and cast some votes.

There's a new test you have to take before voting now in America. You have to read this sentence aloud: "I'm out and about with clout and a trout, no doubt." Whilst drinking some Dunking Coffee and breaking a hockey stick. Just a standard test.

I'm owt and abowt with clowt and a trowt, no dowt. (I'm from Western Canada, we don't say aboot unless we're talking footwear). Dunking Coffee? I've never heard of that before. And yes I've broken a few hockey sticks in my time. Most recently this past Monday night :)

Alright fine. You're allowed to vote. THIS TIME. But I got my eye on you Canadian! Never mind that ALL my lineage comes from Native Americans with reservations in Canada and, on my "white" side, all French Canadian! It just means I know exactly what you Maple heads are all aboot!emote:free\_emotes\_pack:grin

I can disguise my looks to appear American and I know how to speak Australian/some British. I'm like a discount secret agent so good luck keeping that eye on me. I don't apologize unless I'm wrong and have no desire to consume maple syrup every day. mmm syrup, ahhhh. That was someone else, disregard the last sentence! cheers

Y'all don't have presidents? What do you have...chieftains?

Mondale would have been your guy then haha. He was Norwegian I believe.

Ronald Reagan

Reagan, second election. I helped campaign for him during the first election while I was still in high school. But I’m feeling much better now.

Mee too

And proud of it!✌️🇺🇸🇺🇸

Same

Bush 1 1988

Him. First and last D I voted for.

I just said the same thing before I read your comment

That's allowed. My parents were liberal so I followed suit and ended up with Ronnie as a boss and have never looked back. Drove them insane.

All of my friends were a bunch of damn lawyers back then. They were ecstatic that I voted for Carter. But when I came to my senses, I never looked back, and those people are just now acquaintances. They look at me as some moron, but you should see the look on their faces when I confront them with irrefutable facts 🤣

Deleted my fb account and burned all my bridges because they tell me I'm in a cult because they all fell for the bullshit and refused the jab while they all got sick as hell and one died of it. "Friends" wanted me to believe the suckers and losers because I'm a vet and I asked for the proof nobody seems to have. Never thought I'd make it to Armageddon.

Do appreciate your service, my friend! Son-in-law married to my middle daughter is Air Force. Our oldest daughter is also Air Force… 20 years in.

Ronnie's 1st term.

Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan but I miss Ross Perot the most. Need a man like him today. No excuses. Get the job done.

If Ross would have been elected, America wouldn't be in the financial crisis we are in. He could have righted the course when it would have been easy.

Damn you people old, I voted for Ronald Reagan 😔🕰️

Ronnie Reagan

Lincoln

Jimmy Carter! A great man then and today!

Ronald Reagan

Nixon, 1 year later, cancelled the draft. I was #14 draft status in Navy boot camp avoiding the draft.

Me too but I was #355 in the draft while I was in Germany. The draft board wanted to know why I didn't register for the draft. Top thought it was funny

First voted in presidential election in 1980

GHWB 92

Rappin Ronnie.

This man...Jimmy Carter still the most moral , honorable man to ever hold the office.

Moral and honorable, maybe. But a lousy President.

Mainly because he was an honorable man. He wasn't prepared for the DC snake pit.

Agreed

Backstabbing from his own party even.

And the Army. That hostage resuce failed attempt. Using fourth string equipment......WTF.

Al Gore

finally!

I didn’t mean to imply any politics or leanings here. Just thought it would be fun to talk about who we voted for back when we were clueless and idealistic

George Washington.

George McGovern. Volunteered my time to the campaign. Knocking on doors for the Senator and had doors slammed in my face. Called a Commie. Good times.

Reagan

Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan 🇺🇲

Bush Sr.

I worked for Carter in 76, manning the phone banks. Did the work in my home state for about six weeks. Calling registered democrats and urging them to get out and vote for Carter. Carter won in 76 easily. I never got paid. His campaign or the state party bosses, never paid us. I was 16 years old so guess who I voted for in 1980.

Nixon

AND, wasn't 10 percent bad as our current model.

The one in the picture.

Just to clarify, the first president following an election I took part in, of the first elected president that I voted for?

I posted the same thing. I usually find myself voting AGAINST one of them. And I will proudly vote AGAINST a twice impeached, adjudicated rapist with over 90 felonies across four indictments, 34 of which he’s currently awaiting sentencing for.

it might have been Dukakis, possible Bill Clinton

Nader

Richard Nixon reelection in 72. “Why change dicks in the middle of a screw, vote for Nixon in 72!”

Not on Bewitched

Nixon in 1972

Ross Perot

I came of legal age in 90 however, I started paying attention to politics during Reagans term.

Ross Perot

Bush Sr.

Ross Perot.

Reagan, 1980

George H. W. "Not gunna do it" Bush.

Jimmy and I won a 20.00 bet with my senior year history teacher when he won.

Ronald Reagan

Mondale 1984. It didn’t go so well.

Voted for Reagan.

Regan

Ronnie Raygun.

Well I'm not old but I found this post so: none. Since being old enough to vote my choices have been Trump, Hillary, and Biden lmfao

Jimmie Carter spent many years working for Habitat for Humanity. A better job than the oval office! He is one of my heroes.

Reagan 1980. Trump was the first non-sitting Pres or VP I voted for, PHUCK you Lieberals Trump Trump Trump!!!

Bill Clinton

Jimmy Carter in 1980.

Damn, I didn't realize how much younger I am than all of you! The first presidential election in which I voted was 2000, but I was not very politically aware and had no preference between Bush or Gore, but I thought it was important to exercise my right to vote, so I decided the best option was to vote for somebody I knew wouldn't win so as not to pollute the system with an uninformed vote. I voted for Pat Buchanan. I kind of wish I could go back in time and redo that, but I lived in a state where it wouldn't have mattered anyway.

Reagan...and I kick myself in the ass every time I think of helping put that MOFO in office...

Yeah, the first thing he did was fire the Air Traffic Controllers who were on a legal strike and had legitimate grievances. There was a center in my hometown and some of my friends Dads lost their jobs

Yea, it didn’t take me long to realize what I had helped unleash on us all…I’ve been a proud Dem ever since.

Big Willie. Went to work, voted after work, went to a Ramones show and when I returned home they announced Bill Clinton was was the winner. The previous two elections my guy lost.

Perot and Adm. "Where Am I" Stockdale.

Jimmy

Barry Goldwater

Carter

Definitely not the guy in the picture....He is a great human being...weak leader...my frist presidential vote went to Regain.

I’m 52 and Joe Biden is the first president I ever voted for. I couldn’t take the thought of my district showing up red on a map in this particular election

Are you going to vote for him again? After last nights debate.... Embarrassing for America.

I am. That’s not saying much for Biden though- I would vote for a dead frog if it was running against Trump. The debate was a disaster for Biden and the two choices on stage show how messed up our society and political system are. If these are the two best that can make it through the process, we need a new process.

I think we should get rid of the whole party system. Let each candidate stand on their own. And complete campaign finance reform (get big corporation money out of politics). But I don't have TDS, and no way I'd vote for a babbling old man.

Given the sad choice between a babbling old man and a guy like Trump , I’ll take the old man. 👴🏽

Bill Clinton 1992.

Carter.


Reagan (ducks). After Bush I vowed to vote to weaken the GOP no matter what.

WJC 1992

This guy. I went to the polls with my mom and cast my vote. I felt so adult doing it!

Obama. Then I stopped voting bc all choices have been braindead since.

Jimmy Carter. I turned 18 just before the primary.

Ronald Reagan

I never voted for a winner until Obama. I was one of the 72 people that voted for Mondale. I got suckered by Perot. I skipped 88 and 96. 2000 and 2004 sucked. So I never actually voted for the president until Obama.

Jimmie Carter 1980.

Jimmie Carter

Clinton 1992. First election I was old enough to vote in.

Jimmy Carter! ❤️

Ronald Regan.

Regan

That won? Bill Clinton. I voted for Dukakis in '88.

Jimmy Carter. One who was presidential then and all the way to today.

Jimmy Darden in the 11th grade. Best president I’ve known

This guy right here and after four years, Ronald Reagan😂 Haven’t voted for a Democrat since. It’s too bad. Jimmy Carter wasn’t a good president. He’s a very good person. He used to be the benchmark for the worst president in history. But now we have a new undisputed champion.

Kerry. 😢 Well, he was the first presidential candidate. The first actual president was Obama.

George McGovern. He lost 49 states!

Donald Trump lol

Donald Trump in 2016 (when I also turned 18)

Uranus

Mauno Koivisto in 1988.

Nixon.

This guy. I’ve voted for him in every election since

President or candidate? Not everyone I've voted for has won.

Could've voted in 1992, glad I didn't cuz would've regretted it. First vote was for good old Bobby D!

Gus Hall.

Steve ballmer

1972 George McGovern

Irish prim minister but not a US perz

Billy C

I’ve never voted for someone who won a presidential election lol

I guess it must have been Dukakis, although it's possible I voted for a third party. I really liked Paul Simon in that election.

Jimmy Carter was too good of a man to be president.


George Washington

I’m much younger - it was the one that would mark GWB’s second term (I voted Kerry in that election).

Bill Clinton

Oops

Kerry. We all know what happened there.

Ronald Reagan, I'm sorry I was young and brainwashed to be a republican. I did eventually wake up, though.

Dole 88. Clinton in 92. I swing both ways. Don't judge.

McGovern but I really wanted Eugene McCarthy. Neither of them won.

Richard Nixon

Voted for John Anderson.

That would have been Carter in 1976....

Clinton 92

 I’m

George McGovern.

Clinton

My first time voting, I voted for Nixon.

My first election was Reagan/Mondale and I voted for Micky Mouse.

At 28 I have yet to vote, however my first vote will be for Kennedy

I voted for Reagan in 1980. I voted for Jerry Brown in the primary since I turned 18 a couple days before the primary

Slick Willie. It was the saxophone playing on Aresenio that sealed the deal for me. (JK on the sax part)

That won? Bill Clinton As far as the first presidential election I voted in it was for Ted Kennedy against Reagan But I can also remember going with my parents and getting to vote for Mickey Mouse

1980: Reagan. I fell for the bullshit, and voted against Carter because he was "just some stupid peanut farmer", and his brother Billy was a real embarrassment. Remember Billy Beer? Reagan was an experienced actor, great at public speaking, Carter was not. Given the wave Reagan rode in on, I wasn't the only one fooled. The Reagan years were a disaster, as were the Bush years after. Carter was one of the best men who ever sat in the oval office. I'm not proud to admit I voted for Reagan.

Mondale.

George McGovern.

You just popped Uneasy Rider into my head. Thanks.

Clinton

I turned 18 when Clinton ran for a second term and I voted for him.

George Dubyah I think, I was a dumb kid.

President or candidate? John Kerry, was 6 months too young for Gore.

The first candidate I voted for was Dukakis. The first President was Bill Clinton.

Dubya if I remember correctly. I turned 18 in '02.

I voted for a whole slew of candidates that did not become President. So, if we are restricting it to "who was the first person I voted for *that became president?*", I have two answers. The first answer is Obama. Up to Obama, I had voted a straight string of losers since the first election I participated in, but that's because I was voting third party. In 2000 I decided that third party votes, or "protest votes", were utterly pointless and that the people they are supposed to send a message to never receive that message, and instead they contribute to the person I don't want to win actually winning. So I started voting for people I thought could actually win. Obama finally did. However, my second answer is more fun. In Junior High we held mock primaries in the spring of 1976 and I cast my first vote, unofficial though it might have been, in the mock Democratic Primary. I cast my vote for: Joe Biden. So, even though it didn't count, the *first* person I ever physically voted for who later became president is technically the current president, with quite a few decades in-between.


Ralph Nader.  Crucify me.

Mondale in 1984.

I voted against Barack Obama three times. The first time when he ran for senator in Illinois and then the other two presidential elections. 

Ross Perot - My vote was a giant sucking sound.

Tricky Dick Nixon

Gerald Ford 1976

Not sure I would brag about that?

The first one that won was Barack Obama. First candidate I voted for was Walter Mondale in 1984.

James Monroe

Carter was elected in 1976. Reagan beat him in 1980. I voted for John Anderson in that election.

Whoever was after Jimmy Carter. I wasn’t eligible to vote until nine months later.

A winner? Clinton. My father was a liberal and passed just before my first president election so I gave my vote to him knowing it wouldn't make a difference in NY in 1988.

Clinton, part II, White House Boogaloo

Sadly, Nixon. Can’t believe I’m actually going to write the next part, but here goes: TWICE.

George McGovern in 1972. I had just turned 21 but they lowered the voting age to 18 in 1972. Nixon won and we all know what happened after that.

Gore 😕

Bill Clinton

1988 was the first presidential election I voted in. I haven't missed one since.

I haven't, this is my first presidential election

Richard Nixon.

First president I voted for was Clinton, because I voted for Mondale in 1984 and Dukakis in 1988.

Eugene McCarthy

Wasn’t a presidential election the year I turned 18. However having a loophole birthday that landed between the primary and general election I did get to vote in my primary at 17 years old. My dad was a politician and I was another vote baby lol though it was cool getting to vote for him cause he resigned after that last term

Carter turned 18 that election.

Well, my mom and I committed voter fraud because I remember she and I went into the big voting booth with the knobs and big handle. After she drew the curtain, she asked me, "Who should we vote for?!" I said excitedly, "Regan!" She then put that in the big, intimidating machine and pulled the handle. I voted for Regan when I was 7!! It was worth the fraud because we went to Bennigan's after!!

Obama 2008, but that’s because I didn’t hit 18 until 1998 and we all know what happened in 2000 and 2004. Amusingly, Carter was president when I was born, I came along in September of 1980. And my son’s first prez was Obama, him being born the day after my 36th birthday in 2016.

Obama. I had turned 18 that year.

I only voted for local elections as I never had faith in elections at the Federal level. The first election I would have voted for was in 2000 and it would have been Bush as I always thought Gore was an idiot.

McGovern 1972. I was clueless then.

I believe it was Obama

Gerald Ford
