Hym "I don't know how you guys didn't find and clip that immediately! Your excuse likely ✌️✊️✌️social cohesion✌️✊️✌️ or something. I mean, you make things so much harder than the have to be. Watch this, here's this: 'Why do people think the election was stolen?' And then the other guy shows the clip of Biden saying 'We have created the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud operation in the history of the presidency' and then people are like 'But there isn't any evidence' and it's like 'what evidence would there be?' And all of this is irrelevant because I TOLD YOU not to shut down the country. I said it explicitly! I told you not to do it AND what would happen. You didn't listen. Now look at everything. Terrible. Bad job."

Someone who doesn't really have the same access to the results of the polls that the people who tell them that their vote or bond passed or didn't pass have. From the people who say they count the ballots to the people that make the laws or pass the bonds, to them the people who vote are like sheep that blindly accept rather than question what is in their best interest.
A voter isn't somebody that the people who tell the voters they are in charge and know what is in their voters' best interest think about. Dollar signs is what they think about.

A short dictionary definition of "scofflaw" is "a contemptuous law violator." In practice it is often used to refer to a husband who stops paying his court-ordered alimony or child support. But, the term "scofflaw" can also be applied to US citizens who have the right to vote in elections, but who neglect to do so. In our democracy, voting is the most basic civic duty. Unless blocked by voter suppression, illness, or other understandable reason, voting should never be neglected.
Given all the current frustration with our national government, one primary cause of bad or weak government is the almost 40% of eligible voters, the scofflaw voters, who for whatever reason or rational, choose not to vote .

A political strategy to get voters to lose focus on the most appropriate and potentially successful candidate that is most likely to achieve their political goals. and represent them in a political body. Typically voter digression is used in a general election where the strategy is to get the voter to vote for a candidate that will siphon off votes or create voter apathy. The strategist can throw an election even from a popular candidate by taking a few votes away from the most popular candidate or one which can win a plurality. In a presidential election this is even easier since we don't elect the president directly. So a politician can win the national vote by millions but lose a few states if enough votes are siphoned off and they have less votes than the main opposing candidate, which may have radically different political goals. Sadly if the individual voter digresses to a lessor candidate (that may get less than 1% of the vote) because they want their vote to count, but in the process deny the most popular candidate and the one closest to their values the ability to win, and in the process deny the majority of voters their right to be represented.
While many rightly complain about voter suppression, the loss of an election may be more attributed to voter digression, in the form of voter abstinence or the siphoning off of votes by fringe candidates. Voters often do not realize they are in effect denying those most closely aligned with their political views the right to vote, since voting is a collective process that can only be won by a majority or plurality.

Someone who chooses to deliver a swift kick to the balls to democracy in an election, by scribbling profanities or drawing nonsensical pictures on their voting slip, thus making it invalid.
Particularity irritating during federal elections, this causes a huge waste of time for ballot counters as well as the fact you're throwing away your opportunity to have a say in anything.
