Ad hominem. Explain to me how, in a first pasr the post system with only two viable candidates, your lack of a vote helped Palestinians.

Show me the line of logic. I'm happy to change my mind.

But as I understand it, having looked at the math, failing to vote does nothing but support both candidates by reducing the total number of votes they both need. You gave half your vote to each one of the candidates.
