Late votes can be read in a few ways.
1. Can be a safe vote to have a vote out there and not be killed for not voting.
2. Can be 1 with a chance to jump on to a player leading to save said player, be it a mafia saving mafia or an innocent saving someone they deem innocent.
3. Might be someone they feel strongly about and hope others think so also, usually a good case is made with the vote.
Theres still 5 hours left so I wouldn't really consider a vote right now late, in the last hour or 2 yes, but there is still time to rally support for someone you want others to vote for.
I agree for the most part, but it's really close to being late considering we're on a 72 hoour day and there are some who have not voted at all or voted for nonsense. DP voted for himself and then Colonel Mustard and has laid low pretty much since.
