Another lame straw man from the extreme left. You don't own a vote,
you cast it. You can't stockpile votes, or make parts for one. It has
a lifetime of days at most. You can't give it to someone else, or buy
extras without breaking the law of the land.

Actually, Michael, we DO give our vote to someone else...
The electoral college.


No. We vote for them, like we do for other candidates.

But they are not legally bound but OUR votes...

It depends on the state. Many -- maybe most -- states have both bound
and unbound electors. If a bound elector fails to cast his vote for
the candidate to which he's bound, he may be criminally charged.
Again, that depends on the state.
