Oh this is just rich. Very Amusing.
First off, it's okay to contact people via PM and ask them to come out and vote, and to vote for what you support, I'm fine with that and I've done that in several campaigns over the years. Telling people to go back and invalidate their votes because they didn't vote the way you wanted? Now that's pretty damn close to voter intimidation. We have a public voting system because a secret voting system was just too unwieldy to introduce and it took the fun out of live, real-time results for the election. We do not have them so people can go around soliciting voters to invalidate their votes because they didn't vote the right way. Some people have done this in the past, if they did consider that they had voted wrongly, however this is a personal, and quite controversial, choice and is not one that you should be openly encouraging people to do.
