The only candidate enabled by any vote is the candidate for whom that vote was cast

That is correct but you're still allowing the worse of two options to happen by not voting for the "better" but not good option

I'm going to vote for someone I want to win. I have a policy of not voting for people I don't want to win

Which would be valid if the US had an actual democracy and not whatever the current system is

[–] federatingIsTooHard 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

it's valid regardless of your analysis.

Valid might have been a weird choice of words. I meant that your way of voting only works out in an actual democracy. The opinion is valid either way

my way of voting always works: the person for whom i vote is the person i want to win.
