Here’s Ruth holding my kids’ hands before we went in.
Photos and videos are not allowed at the actual voting site.
So I can only tell you that the voting officials & volunteers were unbelievably kind—some were in tears; everyone made sure Ruth went to the front of the line.

Salam, please find the unroll here: @Faith_Salie
: Today I had the honor to escorting my 104.5 year-old friend Ruth to vote. She was born before women had the right to vote.
Her 1st vote was for FDR.
Her dad died of the flu during the pandemic of 1918, when she was 2.
This is her voting story today. https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1320153269205929985.html Enjoy
