That’s nonsense, Clay. There is a _reason_ why we have elections: because we don’t know the outcome in advance. You telling people to vote one way or another way is frankly no different than me telling you to vote for Gary Johnson. You might do it, you might not, but I am engaging in political advocacy, just as you are engaging in political advocacy. And just as you feel free to ignore my advocacy, I am going to feel free to ignore your advocacy.
