Part of the deal is that there is no requirement that people even take voting seriously. Someone can say that they voted blindly, and their vote still counts. Someone can say they voted for the guy with the funnier sounding name, and their vote still counts. People don’t have to actually demonstrate in any way that they’re using their vote responsibly or taking any issue at all into consideration. They still get to vote.

That is important. That is a very important firewall between enacting educational tests and poll taxes and all kinds of other malarkey.
