As the elections approach, we systematically hear speeches from people on the right who justify abstention. It's always the same catchphrases that come back: "it's useless", endorses the system" or "change will not come from the ballot box". It's time to clarify some things to put an end to these defeatist refrains.

.My goal is not to convince you that abstention is “wrong” or “immoral” or “a lack of respect for those who died for this right”, not at all. What I want is for the right to understand that, whatever we think of the current political system, there is no good strategic reason not to vote.
