8. Yes, I can see it, but
That's the choice they'll be making. And, THAT, is my point.

These are voters who are of decision making age, participating in representative democracy. If they choose to vote this way, and it's legal, we have no right to deny them that choice.

Sure the choice sucks. Sure it's a damned stupid way to vote. But that is beside the point.

You're taking the approach the republicans took in Palm Beach County - if they're too stupid to avoid voting this way, then don't let them vote.

I think it's wrong for us to take that approach.
