I would add another take to patriotic_legend, which is that if someone’s brain is deteriorating due to poor judgment, they maybe shouldn’t continue to have their judgment honored and imposed on the rest of us.

Your honor in the matter is respected. Don’t cheat, and don’t break the law, but also don’t go out of your way to publish his voice if he’s seeking to destroy your and our inheritance in the 24th hour.

The vote is fundamentally about selecting good and wise stewards of freedom, how can a man whose mind doesn’t allow him to care for himself do such a thing. Do we truly want the overflow of that cup poured out on society?

Is it more honoring of him to add his dementia to the rule society, or to show that his heirs were raised in such an upstanding manner as to gently and kindly refuse to contribute to it?

I.e. don’t submit his vote regardless of how he votes, because his mind isn’t there to make a sound decision. If you want to talk him into seeing the light, do it for your own peace of mind, or better, seek for his.

Frankly, it probably isn’t immoral of you to claim his voice as a living inheritance and fill it out as you see fit. In war, and we are at war, there is nothing immoral about meeting the enemy with equal force, or even greater force, and they are ballot harvesting, and from people they have no morally justifiable reason to do so from, aside from “I can, therefore I will”. I would not do this myself, as the means are the ends, and I don’t like that particular game (their justification for all their actions is that they’re always at war with us, so anything goes, all the time. Screw that.), but it doesn’t strike me as immoral. Would also definitely be sure to check the election laws first to make sure it’s not illegal.

This said, I have no issue whatsoever with my first suggestion, which is likely what I would do. It seems quite reasonable to assert that people who are not of sound mind should not be able to vote, and I think that was even a requirement for voting at one point.

These sort of choices aren’t necessarily easy, use your own discernment.
