doesn't make any difference whatsoever.
The probability of an election swinging
by a single vote is infinitesimal.

And, at least as much as your vote matters,
your intention for the future of the world matters.
That's so important, it's worth saying again.
At Least As Much As Your Vote Matters,
Your Intention For The Future Of The Entire World Matters.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough.
