I'm tempted to reverse myself. Women have that privilege, I've been told, so why not men in this age of equal rights?

It occurs to me that, as a stock investor, or other kind of investor, or even a businessman whose line of business is prospectively to be benefited by one set of candidates, or threatened by another, I might want to hedge my bets depending on what I came to see as the likely result of the election.

The point is, adjusting one's choice of voting is not the only possible use of poll advice.
