Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

To solve this, find out how to register a protest vote and do that. Not voting is ambiguous, as is spoiling your ballot paper. What you need is a formally recognised way to vote "None of the above" or something similar, so that your intent is 100% clear.

And worthless.

I really wish election day was a holiday and voting was mandatory.

Could vote "none of the above" but had to hand in a ballot.

Could you elaborate?

[–] qwrty@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Intentionally filling out the ballot incorrectly which results in it being thrown out.

[–] MadBob@feddit.nl 1 points 8 months ago

Haha, I should've seen that coming I suppose.

Here (the Netherlands) you can simply turn in a unmarked ballot and it will be counted as a blank vote.
