Like.
Flow of electrons (or of charge in general) is called current, which is different from volatge. You need charges to generate an EM-wave... -

One thing, because I think that is your main issue - voltage is not a property of electrical current per se (e.g. flow of electrons in... -

Like.
I'd prefer to say it includes an electric field, but "has voltage" will do, yes. Do note @weirdoguy's comment in #9, though. Although... -
