The point made should apply to anyone who has taken the decision not to vote.
By not voting, you merely tell the candidates that you don't care what they do. By turning out in large numbers future candidates will know you are watching, listening, and reacting to their words and deeds. To not vote is to send them the message that they can get away with even more corruption.
Personally speaking, anyone who takes the decision to not vote is a fool, a damn fool.
