Nearly 10,000 Dead People Found on Active Registered Voter Rolls

I first started getting interested in politics when I was around 12 or 13. We were learning about the Constitution and the founding of America in school, and I remember being genuinely fascinated by it. Something about the idea of individual freedom and limited government just made sense to me.

Of course, growing up in Tennessee, I was surrounded by plenty of conservative people. My parents usually voted Republican, and most of our family friends had similar beliefs. But I don't think I really started developing my own political opinions until I got a little older.
