No one knows when his own offense may serve to bring about a majority of offenders.
A crime of lasting harm to the state is committed when a man votes more than once at the same election. Next in harmfulness is for a man who has the right to vote not to exercise that right. For a man to vote more than once, or for another man wrong- fully to induce him so to do, is treason to our institutions. The immediate effect of that single duplication of votes may not be felt. By the casting of an illegal... vote every other person has been robbed of his right under the law to express himself in the mathematical proportion he bears to all the rest, and has been deprived of a right for which there is no compensation. There can be no majority rule if any one of the votes out of which grows that supposed majority is not representative of an actual individual voter. How is it possible ever to determine whether a majority of the people have voted in favor of this or that policy if there are more ballots cast than there were legal voters at the polls 1 172 COMMON SENSE IN POLITICS Crimes against property and person enu- merated in the penal code, while they may arouse general protest, are not fundamen- tally as harmful as prostitution of the ballot.
