But they don't have the option of casting the vote "stay" because the poll doesn't offer it. According to you, they should have voted (b).
But why should we simply accept your take on it? Especially since it is highly illogical. As James said, in a poll that asks "should I leave, how in the world do you manage to interpret the response "no one should be asked to leave" as anything but a vote for Jimmy to stay?
Even if these (c) people do want Jimmy to leave, because they believe that no one should be asked to, they are, by default, agreeing he should stay. Why they don't want to ask him to is immaterial. They are not asking him to. If the question was "should I stay"? And they said "no one should be asked to leave", then there would indeed be difficulty in interpreting their response. As it is, there is none. It is quite clear.
And again, Jimmy does not say he will leave if the majority "ASK ASK ASK" him to. Longshot says that. Jimmy says he will honor the poll. Read his first post.
(c) did not 'abstain'. They voted. Abstaining means not voting. Quite elementary.

your an idiot. and a quite familiar one at that. i've beaten you before, i can sense it.![]()
People who voted "c" won't ask him [anyone] to leave. PERIOD. Anything else is YOUR interpretation, YOU reading b/w the lines putting your spin on it.
Did they also ask him to stay?? NO! [Are you truly this obtuse to think otherwise??!!]
If they wanted JIMMIE to stay it's simple VOTE "STAY JIMMIE PLEEEASE STAY!!"
Did they? NO!
Are you getting this you dummie?
Jimmie says I will go if majority ASK me to GO!
It's obvious, Jimmie must go and NOW!!

Good lord some people are thick!
(1) Could you please show me the option where it says "STAY JIMMIE PLEEASE STAY"?
(2) Could you please show me where Jimmy said if the majority "ASK" him to "GO" that he would?
According to you, people voting (c) are 'abstaining'. Yeah. Uh-huh.
Dude they are voting.
Given that there is no option that says "PLEASE JIMMIE STAY", those that want him to stay have two options for voting no to the poll question "should I leave?".
Those voting (b) are saying "no" because they think he's done more good than bad.
Those voting (c) are saying "no" because they believe that no one should be asked to leave. Maybe they don't feel that Jimmy has done "more good than bad", maybe they feel he is a complete fruitloop. But they are adamant that no one should be asked to leave. They are saying "regardless of what I think of Jimmy, or of anyone, no one should be asked to leave". That can only be a vote for Jimmy to not leave. Anything else is your completely illogical spin.
