If there are three choices on the ballot... A vote not CAST for the runner up is mathematically equivalent to a vote CAST for the winner. A vote CAST for a third party candidate is just such vote. An abstention is not a CAST vote. The voter, by definition, ABSTAINS from casting a vote.Cannonpointer » 07 Oct 2024, 2:42 pm » wrote: ↑ That is ****. It assumes the withheld vote would have gone (was somehow owed?) to the losing candidate in that equation. That assumption is based on vapidity and false sophism.
Voting is sacred. Profaning it is craven.
