Default no linkage to voting for a political office is implied

just a chance to participate in budget discussions and perhaps vote on expenditures would be fair.

It doesn't seem like letting a non-resident taxpayer to vote on the budget would cause the world to end. Yesterday the Moultonboro Historical Society hit me up to "help" them with some project or another. I sent them $5000 worth of help with the last tax bill...
