Of course it makes sense.  After all, I'm willing to accept that there 
are 14B people on the planet, and that NONE of them voted for options C 
or D, as long my single vote counts.  That's what democracy IS: letting 
the rest of the overpopulated world be misrepresented as long as I get 
to act like a baby and whine about MY two cents' worth of opinion being 
properly represented!
