I Cancel Your Vote!

God bless their little hearts.
Apparently in Florida a rash of people tried to vote yesterday ... 'cause their primary WAS yesterday ... until the state officials moved it earlier ... which meant the people who showed up yesterday had nothing to vote for and had spent their gas money to get to the polls, and I'm sure they were all riled up.
That's one way of canceling the vote.
Another, much more humorous to me, is how I interacted with my cousin the other day.
He called me up as a political expert and asked me to break down the pros and cons of various candidates for him. He also asked about some ballot initiatives.
I told him who/what I was voting for and then gave plenty of information on why the other alternatives were good too.
After 20 minutes on the phone, he said: "Thanks for the information. I'm going to go the other way on both issues. I'm canceling your vote."
We had a good laugh at that one, and now my motto is "I cancel your vote!" done in the same cadence as "I'm crushing your head!" (Yes, Kids in the Hall still rule.)
I'm canceling your vote.
