[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

I remember seeing a political cartoon years ago.

A simon Legree character with a whip is preparing to beat a slave. The slave on his knees says, "You may owns my body but my soul belongs to, uh, to, uh, to youall, massa!

I do believe this Simon Legree character best represents the Democratic party in the US.

...but my soul belongs to, uh, to, uh, to youall, massa!

In this case, substitute the word VOTE for the word SOUL.
