He doesns think one vote doesnt count. He votes! Your vote, not cast, leaves his vote and others like his to carry the election against Jj your wishes. Edmund Burke said, All that bad men need to take over the government is that good men do nothing. Not voting is doing exactly nothing! No one counts your gripes. All they count are votes. Inside the voting booth, for one moment only, you are as powerful as the President of the United States of America! Where else? reg , John Ruskin said: There is no music in a rest but there is the making of music in it.
