Yes, I fully understood that he could vote in Canada. I didn't understand what was confusing about "in the US". That can't get any clearer. 

Yeah

You both understand that he can vote in Canada
You both understand that he can't vote in the U.S
You both understand that you where saying that, since he is not a U.S citizen, he couldn't vote Trump.

All Goosey was doing was making a joke.

You didn't actually say "He's Not a US Citizen, he can't vote in the U.S" you just said "He's Not a US Citizen, he can't vote".

Both of you understood you were talking about the fact he couldn't vote Trump, but he made a joke - that was supposed to be light hearted - basically saying 

"Well I actually can vote, just not in the U.S "

when you replied once more "He's Not a US Citizen, he can't vote" You emphasised US, in U.S citizen, but still made the blanket statement "He can't vote" so he jokingly replied again to the effect of:

"In the U.S I can't vote, but I can still vote elsewhere "

That's all that was meant, it was meant as a light hearted joke.

We were talking about the US election, therefore it is a given. 

His response wasn't clear, that's why I asked what he meant. That's the bottom line and all there is to it. 

But...from this day forward, I will make sure to specify that I am discussing voting in a US election as a US citizen, in a thread where we are discussing the US election.

Okay

Again, Goosey was joking - you both knew the entire time that you where referring to the US election. I don't think there is a need for you to specify that you are discussing voting in a US election in a thread about the US election - as nobody misinterpreted you.

It's fine  You wanted to know what he meant, I thought I'd jump in and explain. Still not sure if you actually get that it was a light-hearted joke on Goosey's part but that's fine.

Or he just could have answered. Thanks for the detailed explanation. 

Have a nice night.
