Some of us live where we oppose all of the current elected officials. In that case, it sounds like opting out is the only effective "vote" we can make in a FPTP

  That's like cutting of the nose to spite the face.

  You can reasonably oppose the officials, sure, but the schools and other services in your area still need funding. Avoiding the census is a vote not to fund them, and unlike a normal vote every single return or lack of it has a direct impact on the level of that funding. Also the census results are applied for a whole decade during which officials can change and many elections will take place.

  The effective vote is the one with your feet.
