Microsoft cannot vote.
Okay. It's time for a reality check and/or to pull your head out of your nether regions.
A company is not a person. It is a construct created at the sufferance of the people. It exists to, among other things, limit the liability of the people who control it and, believe it or not, actually work for the good of society while making a profit.
A lot (if not most) people in this country seem to forget that, *especially* the people here who think that the "free market" is the answer to everything.
The representation granted is to the people who control the company. Ballmer and the other people who control Microsoft most certainly CAN vote provided they are citizens and have not been convicted of a felony, and most likely do so.
