I'm somewhere close to the same age, but the exact opposite.  I was a supervoter from age 18 until fairly recently.  I didn't vote in this year's primary, probably the first time ever I skipped a primary.  I'm actually on the fence about whether I really want to vote in the general election.  I view the major media shoving the presidential race down everyone's throats, 24/7, day-in-and-day-out with suspicion.  Downballot, there are four major candidates for U.S. Senate but no real choice.  In my district, Adam Wool and Aaron Lojewski isn't exactly any kind of choice, either.  It's what happens when you get older and more attuned to the real world around you.  When Town Square Park starts to truly resemble the opening scenes of "They Live", I know my eyes will still be wide open and won't need to be surgically removed from the surface of a television screen like the zombie fans of Cable 54.
