Idk why people think negotiation starts after voting happens
We're negotiating right now, this is the negotiation.
Absolutely, but the negotiation also continues after the voting happens, so it's probably worthwhile to vote for someone who can be negotiated with.
Not If your negotiation partner is unwilling to provide concessions before you give them what they want....
No no, see the best time to negotiate is after you've already given someone everything they want from you. This totally isn't a textbook recipe for being taken advantage of. /s
