I think he's extending the logic that government is basically a form of coercion/force(and if you get down to it it really is), and thus he's saying voting is an attempt to get people in who would do what you'd like the government to force people to do. However, since I recognize that a minimal level of government is necessary for a civil society to exist, I would disagree that it is pointless - I would vote for the person who would use the least unnecessary force possible with the end intention of keeping government at a minimum.
