Question: Which U.S. president never voted until his own election?
Answer: Zachary Taylor, the 12th president, cast his first vote in 1848 when he ran as the Whig candidate against Democrat Lewis Cass. Taylor was a career officer in the Army and never revealed his political leanings—or voted in elections—until he joined the Whig party and won the 1848 election as “Old Rough and Ready.”
