Not exactly. Pre-election polls give people a very good idea of who the viable candidates are. Moreover, there's no artifical constraint forcing people not to discuss for whom they're voting, as has been advocated here.

I think seeing the votes skews some people's vote. A blind vote would hopefully eliminate that.
I'm just taken aback that you would advocate strategic voting to others when you wouldn't engage in it yourself.
