I disagree.
I vote FOR.
I am voting FOR.
I hereby vote FOR.
all are equivalent to each other and to
At the present instant, I am taking the action of voting FOR

It's still a statement; it just so happens that the game makes the
statement ipso facto true.

I don't think the fallacy is legal or logical; I believe it's Goethe
et al's grammatical fallacy that "I vote FOR" is not a statement.
