  Yay, that's the attitude. If just everyone else realised what you have
  realised, I would be GodKing of the World by now.</irony>

  Everyone should use their right to vote, both on-wiki and in real life; it
  is true, your vote only has a small impact, but it still has small impact.
  Think about it; what if all the other people who didn't vote agreed with
  you, think of the impact you could make together. (I'm not saying that
  people should be coordinating their votes here, just that this is people's
  one chance at influencing, and should seize it. It doesn't even cost you
  anything.)
