Yes, of course. I could strike-out on purpose to send the message I don’t like my coach. My one at-bat likely won’t affect the outcome of the game. Better yet, I’ll just quit the team when I step up to the plate.
But then that would require I ignore the reason for playing at all or that I cared more about sending a message than who wins or loses.
Then, in your plan, your logic would still require you to think your one vote “message” will make any difference in the undefined amount to reach your goal which you haven’t a clue if its possible to reach anyway.
Sorry, your position collapses on the slightest examination using reason.
FAIL. There are only two outcomes to an at-bat (get on base or don't) but more than two candidates. You should get better at this "reason" stuff before you presume to lecture others about it.
