Okay, I finally figured out the protest vote angle. It allows you to legally vote multiple times.
Let’s say you’re a Republican in a heavily blue state. Your vote is effectively nil. But you are working the protest vote angle. So you tell MULTIPLE people you will vote blue if they vote red. But every one you tell you pretend is the only one. THEY think it’s 1:1. When instead they multipled their vote by lying. This technically is legal. You only voted once. But EFFECTIVELY…
@feloneouscat I would hope none of us fall for this.
… you voted multiple times by proxy.
One person is not much. Multiply it by thousand and you are now taking about throwing an election.
This is the kind of dirty tricks I expect of Republicans.
Is it provable? Irrelevant, it’s perfectly legal as far as I know.
But people shouldn’t trust strangers on the internet with their vote.
