When running for president in 1860, Abraham Lincoln voted for all his
party's candidates except himself. He humbly made no choice for
president. In Rainier, Wash., city council candidate Damion Green
followed this example, and it cost him. He didn't vote for himself,
fearing it would seem narcissistic, and he lost by one vote. His
opponent tells The Seattle Times he did vote for himself after his wife
gave him a nudge.
