    These are not contradictory at all.
    People have to vote, and its easier to convince someone to NOT vote for the hated enemy, which implicitly gets them to vote for you.

      I don’t think this is a useful definition of voting for

      which implicitly gets them to vote for you.

      Seems to only be true if you think of there being only 2 parties, which is why I don’t think the definition is good.

        You, being aware that there are more choices that Labor vs Liberal, are more educated than the vast majority of my family (and dare I say the community at large), who believe that voting for anyone else is “throwing their vote away”.
