Nobody. At least Camus isn't voting for anyone. In his mind whats the point in voting? Life and existence is meaningless and absurd so no matter who is in office, that person will have no point or use. Besides, everyone is going to die anyways so voting would just be a waste of our short, minuscule, pointless lives that already have no purpose or impact on the universe. So just sit at home and do nothing, because you can't commit suicide to end your pointless and meaningless life. That would be cheating (which then gives living a purpose, and creates a paradox loop that will never end) Camus needs to chill a little about how pointless we are, just have some fun and try not to think. Heck he should go vote and prove his life has meaning by having an impact on a country's new leader.
Voltaire is voting for Candide. He is a naive person who doesn't have any corruption of the outside world and hopes for the best. No matter what comes in Candide's way, he could only be living in the best world there is, so just forget about it and push ahead. Candide could bring some real change and positivity to the political spectrum. As long as the skeletons in his closet of killing people don't get out, he should have a pretty good chance against that Nothing candidate.
i like your whole idea of Voltaire being able to vote for someone who isnt even running... a lot of people, including myself assumed current candidates
