Taylor Swift voted for the first time Thursday and she tells People exclusively that casting a ballot for president made her feel "so completely American." The 18-year-old country star waited in line in Sumner County, Tenn., for an hour and a half on the last day of the state's early voting period. "I wasn't going to be able to vote on Nov. 4 because I'm going to be in L.A.," she explains. "But there wasn't a chance I was going to let this slip away."
