    The pun is about the double meaning of the word “count”:

    1. The literal act of measuring the number of instances of a certain thing. In our case - whether the people working the election will physically be able to count the physical vote (or digitally. This is about the concept in general, not about a particular voting mechanism)
    2. A contribution toward something. In our case - the fact the votes were stolen affects the outcome, so it counts toward changing the result.

    So what am I lying about exactly? I’ve presented an hypothetical case, and made two claims about it:

    • That the stolen votes will not get counted (in the first meaning of the word)
    • That my action counts (in the second meaning of the word)

    Which of these claim is incorrect?

      I thought we were talking about counting votes the whole time. I’m not interested in helping you with your mental gymnastics routine.

        I thought we were talking about counting votes the whole time.

        We are, sort of, but counting votes is not just a fun pastime activity - it’s a mean for determining who will take the power (or, in depending on the political system, how the power will be distributed) so my argument is that there is a meaning to the result of that count.
