If You want to quote Scripture You’d better be a bit more...
Of course you can do so if you choose.
I think it is a greater sin to let 0bama win a second term. Remember, since 1981 we have had 20 of those years with prolife presidents. Where are we in this country with abortion?
Not voting is a sin? Give me chapter and verse. Voting is a right given to us by the US Constitution not something required or to my knowledge a ‘sin’.
========================================================
While you are mathematically correct, my point is my vote is accountable to The One who created math, and is beyond math.
If 1 = sin and 2 = sin I cannot vote for 1 or 2 without sinning so I must vote for 3.
From a worldly standpoint 3 = 1, but from a spiritual standpoint 3 = 3.
Since you asked, your primary flaw lies in what is either a misunderstanding or non-understanding of the concept of grace. That, and your logic is convoluted. Otherwise, you're good.
You tell be which to vote for:
Satan or Ba’al
Or is the sin in the participation of such endeavors? One only needs to look to Exodus to find the answer.

No. It is not a sin to vote against the incumbent -closest-thing-to-the-AntiChrist I’ve ever seen.

Romans 6:1
6 What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin so that grace may increase?

In God’s system we are guilty if we are guilty and innocent if we are innocent. There is no “proving.” It is or it isn’t. We don’t get a lawyer when we face Judgement.
If you join the Mormon church (obviously) or (not many know it) Scientology, it isn’t a sin!
========================================================
1 John 2:1
2 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous;
--------------------------------------------------
ad·vo·cate
tr.v. ad·vo·cat·ed, ad·vo·cat·ing, ad·vo·cates To speak, plead, or argue in favor of. See Synonyms at support.
1. One that argues for a cause; a supporter or defender: an advocate of civil rights.
2. One that pleads in another's behalf; an intercessor: advocates for abused children and spouses.
3. A lawyer.
Sin lies only in hurting other people unnecessarily. All other sins are invented nonsense.
Did you vote for John McCain? I did. And I consider McCain to be a complete and utter piece of crap.
Brilliantly put. After all, ‘What hath light to do with darkness? Ye are children of the light...’
It is completely beyond me how anyone who considers himself a social conservative and a member of the vast ‘Christian Right’ could possibly justify voting for this guy.
Lying to your grandmother that your grandfather never cheated on her is still a sin, right?
