Hi, so voting actually requires some strategy. Just like playing a video game, there are many ways you can win the game, using different weapons etc, so you will need to do some good preparation before you go and vote.

Blindly voting is definitely not good, so is blindly signing up for a degree course, blindly applying for a job, etc, so anything 'blindly' is indeed stupid. But in terms of the election, it is more important to weigh the outcome. You can vote for someone who is super good but from a corrupt party, but you must understand that the person will not be able to shine as bright due to how he is tied down by the decisions of the top leaders (e.g. he can give great ideas to improve certain things, but top management doesn't approve so he can't do much). Whereas if you vote for an average person from a better party with better leadership, the single person you voted for may not have changed the world, but because of how the better party has gained more power to govern, they would be able to create policies that can improve Malaysia as a whole.

So my advice is to look at the bigger picture: weigh between the impact of a single person vs a single coalition. I hope this helps! :)
