text: "Voters in presidential elections are people who want to express a political preference rather than people who think that a single vote may decide an election...." Really, is that why people vote? So you are saying that people vote just because they prefer, or like, the person other another candidate. So going back to my earlier point, people are just so amazed at their "something", that they just decide to take the effort to vote for them. No, people, that's not why, it's because they think they can make a change in the everyday world.
