Extracting parts from a date
In this exercise, you will practice extracting date parts from a date, using SQL Server built-in functions. These functions are easy to apply and you can also use them in the WHERE clause, to restrict the results returned by the query.
You will start by querying the voters table and create new columns by extracting the year, month, and day from the first_vote_date.
