You mean, a rational conservative who hates Obama and ordinarily would vote against him because it’s in his best interest to get rid of him? That’s what I said my premise is. I don’t give a rats ass about losers or pets or what have you. Just rational conservatives who hate Obama. Like I thought inhabited this forum.

If that guy doesn’t vote, or votes for a sure loser as a “protest” vote, then the serious challenger to Obama — the one that might actually remove him — gets one less vote.

One LESS vote for candidate A in a two-candidate race is mathematically exactly the same as one MORE vote for candidate B.

And don’t kid yourself — this IS a two candidate race.

I don’t even know why I’m bothering to explain this — you and the others going down this “logical” rathole already know the answwer, you are just engaging in sophism.

If you don’t know what sophism is, look it up.

Does that 'one less vote' include all eligble voters?

The answer can be short, using only two, or maybe three letters of the alphabet.
