If you find it annoying that you only have one legal vote, heres how you can get a few more. Its called persuasion.
You can multiply the power of your opinion by convincing people on the other side to stay home on election day. Every vote you suppress on the other side is like an extra vote for you. And theres no limit to how many you can have!
Persuasion doesnt work every time. But you might enjoy experimenting to see how many times it works for you. For this exercise, I will assume you are a Trump supporter trying to suppress the votes of Clinton supporters. Heres how you can do it.

Catbert, the evil HR advisor, must have suggested this...
Personally, I couldn’t keep a game like this going, and why should I... every poll in the world has Hillary winning supposedly, and the overconfidence this will engender is itself enough. Why lie, which I can’t even do very convincingly.
Ping for tomorrow..
I already do this by identifying Hillary supporters and trying to get them over to Jill Stein.
I simply say that vote for Jill. They ask ‘why’? Because we need a woman President this time (that resonates well with a Hillary supporter), and Stein’s not a criminal like Hillary, nor does Jill Stein take money from America’s enemies.
Just plant the seed...then maybe next time O’Keefe or Assauge comes out with something, they’ll take it more seriously.
I think it is far better and more effective to help get out the vote for Trump.
I recently had a friend tell me that while she was out walking her dog, several of her neighbors talked with her and urged her to vote for Trump. She was already planning to do that, but was glad to see others are active in trying to get out the vote for Trump.
This could be so much fun!
That’s a good approach.
(On election day, you could take that kind of dissuasive example to a whole new level against lunatic-Hillary-voters, as demonstrated below.)
(Just kidding!)
There is not one person living who would believe I was going to go out and for vote HRC.
Course, since she blabbed about the nuke response time, I’ve been using the *can’t keep her mouth shut with national security issues, not a good thing for someone who wants to be commander in chief.
And then Hillary deleted all those emails AFTER she got subpoenaed and point out that if any of us had done that, we’d be in jail. And then there’s the Benghazi debacle. I tell people about the 600 calls for help that Stevens made and what those muslim slime did to torture him to death. It was horrific. No excuse for it.
The other thing I do is admit to them that Trump can come across as kind of off putting but after I looked into what he had to say, I found that I agreed more with him than Hillary.
And that really disarms people. One of the most frequent complaints I hear about Trump is that he’s arrogant and obnoxious and people don’t like that. I found that they are more likely to listen to you if you somehow validate their opinion. It shows that you are taking them seriously and not blindly following someone.
And now I can add that he’s supporting term limits for Congress. And I can tell them he has a tax plan laid out on his website that I like.
If you can keep it on the issues instead of personality or rumor, I think there’s way more opportunity to get somewhere with them.
You might be surprised-my best friend is as conservative as it gets. Our manager (completely apolitical, he’s never voted) told me he figured out she was a Hillary supporter. I pretty much snorted in laughter. She about fell over when I told her. We both were later trying to convince him how important it is that he vote for Trump. His one question: what’s so bad about globalization?
Compare it to water. It always settles at the lowest point. All the pictures in the world of pristine glaciers and rain falling in the forest can't stop it from ending up in the lowest common sewer. That's what globalization does to every person on the planet.
False.
It just so happens that Trump is leading in 2 of the polls that were the most reliable in 2012. He's also leading in 2 others.
The Revolution is ON!
Vote Trump!
Or go to New Hampshire and vote in as many polling stations as you like. They are easy.
Actually.....The African-American community is not turnng out to vote for Hillary Clinton, anywhere in the entire country, with the numbers of folks who supported Barack Hussein Obama. Many African-Americans fully realize how both Clinton & Obama have done little to improve life and the pursuit of happiness for them. This is also true with other groups, such as Latinos, White males, married women, industrial union members, first reesponers, folks on Social Security & Medicare, etc. America, the country must change.....therefore there is but, one choice for POTUS...and that is simply, DONALD J. TRUMP!!!
Add to that that globalization will vastly increase the difference in wealth between the rich and the poor. Ask him how he feels that rich investors can’t lose, but American workers who have to compete with Bangladeshis will lose every time.
Early voting starts tomorrow in FL. I’m going to vote in downtown Sanford. It’s a black and white mixed area and has been that way for decades. No one here rioted after the trayvon situation. As a recent transplant I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings. In South Florida I had some dicey exchanges in early voting. Hoping for better here.
Point out that, until Brexit, Parliament had been stripped of their power to make laws. All laws in Europe are made in Brussels, and the people have no idea how EU officials get their jobs. They no longer have a vote.
Point out to him how Brussels Sprouts are like little cabbages.
Note how the other side plays the same game with Trump supporters. Each side has special cards to play also.
The Trump supporters who can be pealed away are those who are with him on issues; but not on his temperament. So constantly defend Trump on his law-suits, and on Machado and Khan. That will drive luke warm Trump supporters away from Trump.
Adams will probably vote for all four candidates so he doesn’t upset anyone.
