10/3 Hypothetical moral question: if you know someone who has the
opposite political stance as you but know that the person isn't
sure whether he/she wants to vote, would you:
1) encourage that person to vote because it's in the American
spirit to vote?
2) don't bother that person to vote because he/she will
nullify your vote.
Please explain your answers.
\_ I think everyone should vote who's paying attention. There's
something to be said for the wisdom of democaracy, but I think
something to be said for the wisdom of democracy, but I think
that breaks down if the voter isn't paying attention.
\- 1. i dont think this is a moral question typically
2. not voting is a form of voting.
longer answer: if you are persuaded the way you are voting is
"moral" and the other party is not ... like say they believe
in torturing people ... the moral act is to try to persuade them
to do the "right thing". now in some cases it's reasonable to
agree to disagree or the other party may reasonably have different
interest from you. i think discussing issues matters more than
voting. but to answer your question directly, #2. --non-voter.
\_ Cast an additional vote on their behalf for your candidate. -rdaley
\_ It doesn't matter. -DIEBOLD |
