I am going to visit and campaign for McCain! For a couple hundred bucks for doughnuts and coffee, he could have all the votes!

How quaint. What if we had a presidential election in 2008 and no one showed up?

Hummm, smacks of disenfranchisement. Obviously these people were kept from voting by the evil GOP. How dare they make these people go about their daily routines. Where is Big Al Sharpton to stand up for the rights of the little person.

Doesn't that mean that the townspeople unanimously chose nobody? Sound to me like the town should be abolished...

Another interpretation is that no-one got a single vote, therefore, under the democratic system, they have no moral authority to be in office.
