I'm pretty sure I just said that that's the

If people vote in a different way from you, your automatic assumption is that they have been swayed by the media. But not you, TS. You're too smart for that. I, however, have greater faith in the public than you do.

Again I have no idea where you're getting the "a different way from me" part. AGAIN I made no allusion to what the outcome of such a vote would be. I wasn't even talking about current or past real votes. I was talking about ALL votes in ANY circumstance. Past, present, future, hypothetical: I believe that by stopping unintelligent people from casting a vote, the outcome is far more likely to represent the true situation and the facts rather than hype or hysteria.
