Boycotting the new Constitution

Personally, there are many reasons why I have boycotted the new constitution. First, since I am certain more than one hundred percent that the new constitution will be approved and validated, I see no point in going to vote in the negative. Normally, one votes in the negative or in the affirmative if there is an almost equal possibility and competition of the success of one side and the failure of another. Second, since the king himself says YES to the new constitution, I can see that from time immemorial, so few would say NO to the new constitution. Third, the government has spent great amounts of money to make people vote in the affirmative. Here, I see no point in saying NO, for the government has made it clearer for me the new constitution is already approved. Fourth, the majority of voters do not know what are the real changes in the new constitution and whether the latter will surely bring Morocco any positive change. Fifth, illiterate people's voices mustn't be counted as they do not anything about the speech delivered. All they know is that it is delivered by the king of Morocco, the one whom they love so passionately. This love is passed on from generation to generation amongst them. No matter what the speech is about, I am more than certain that they will keep saying " Long live the king! and Long live the new constitution. These reasons are simply just to name but a few.
