Imagine...

A group of people lined up against a wall.  Given a choice:  Test by fire or Test by water. 

By fire you will be burned at the stake.  By water you will be drowned.  If you die, you are innocent.  If you live, you are guilty and will be killed by another method.

You must choose.  If you do not, you will be tested by the manner chosen by the majority of the group.  Since you know this, you have no right or ability to contest the validity of the choice.  That there is no choice "C" of "D".  You cannot even choose hanging or firing squad.  Oh, you could yell those words out, but no one will listen.  And those who think fire is better will fight long and hard to avoid water.  As will those who would rather drown. No, you must choose fire or water.  No choice is still a choice. 

 But imagine this choice!  Even those who opt out and decide they will not participate in such a farce suffer the same consequences as those who try to pick the way they want to die.  No matter how you look at it, the result is the same. 

Only an insane person would participate.  But if you opt out - choose the sane option - you are deemed sane enough to have made the choice to abide by the decision.  If you opt in, you are undoubtedly insane, but no one will stop you. 

Happy Election Day!
