Two friends (let's call them Second and Peter)are discussing politics on Election Day (yesterday), each trying to no avail to convince the other to switch sides.
Finally, second says to the Peter: “Look, it’s clear that we are unalterably opposed on every political issue. Our votes will surely cancel out. Why not save ourselves some time and both agree to not vote today?’’

I voted National so I could still hear Anne Tolley speak about education policies.
She's better than listening to a stand up comedian, or perhaps even Genghis Khan.
