Well, where to begin, I posted support for Turner prior to the end round polls showing he had no chance. Infact, I stopped endorsing anyone when it became clear that the CPC would win 5 days left in the election.
Second, the probability that my vote or the influence that I had on others' votes affecting the final outcome of the election is so small that it's actually scientific to stay home. THere's a higher likelihood that'd I'd be hit by a bus on the way to the polling station that my vote actually making a decision.
Which is why I didn't vote, the scientific, evidence based decision to make.  |
Your decision was based on a poll, not scientific evidence. There could have possibly been thousands of Green Party supporters who ended up doing exactly what you did.... stay home and not vote.
You and others like you, possibly cost Turner the election. tsk tsk.
And if nothing else, you cost the Green Party $2.
