SHE'S 110 YEARS OLD. >> Reporter: IT'S VERY NICE TO MEET. >> THANK YOU. >> Reporter: SHE'S ONE OF 16 CHILDREN. TODAY MIMI, WHO SPEAKS ENGLISH AND FRENCH, LIVES IN A NURSING HOM HOME AND IS REGULARLY VISITED BY THREE GENERATIONS. SHE CAN'T HEAR WELL MANY SO WE WENT SOME QUESTIONS FOR HER. >> JUST NOW? >> Reporter: YOUR WHOLE LIFE. >> PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT? TEDDY OR FRANKLIN? >> BOTH. >> THIS IS HER DAUGHTER RUTH. SHE SAID HER FATHER INSISTED EVERYONE VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS. >> Reporter: YOUR MOTHER AS FAR AS YOU KNOW ALWAYS VOTED FOR DEMOCRATS IN EVERY ELECTION? >> YES. >> Reporter: SHE VOTED FOR AL SMITH THAT YEAR. REPUBLICAN HERBERT HOOVER WON. >> Reporter: WERE THERE ANY PRESIDENTS DID YOU NOT LIKE? >> NO, NO, I LIKE ALMOST ALL THE PRESIDENTS NOW. >> Reporter: BUT WHO DOES SHE LIKE NOW IN 2016?
