And in TFA, the expression should be “not old enough to drive, let alone vote.” The more restrictive criterion should come first, otherwise the expression doesn’t really work.
I’m curious if he would have the legal capacity to sign anything as governor. My understanding is that as a minor he doesn’t have capacity to enter into a contract.

FYI:
Pique: stimulate (interest or curiosity)
Peak: 1. (of a person) gaunt and pale from illness or fatigue and 2. reach a highest point, either of a specified value or at a specified time.
They are both pronounced the same, \ ˈpēk \.
