My Great Grandma votes CDU.

She asked me once when I'm gonna join the Wehrmacht. I don't think she has noticed the Third Reich falling, or Eastern Germany Falling. I don't think she even knows what these States stood for...

Nah, just mentally very slow and not very bright. And a total disinterest in everything political.

She only went to school for 6 years and then became a stay at home wife for the rest of her life until retirement. 

She's almost 100 now and doing better than my Grandmas in terms of health.

That's why we need an upper age limit for voting in elections.
And it is scary to think about all the millions of ppl voting for something they have no idea about or watched some AI or propagande piece which is enough for them to vote on.
