Ha! I assumed you were in the US. Yeah we can write in candidates here and its not supposedly invalid.
Personally I don't consider voting giving any sort of consent but it does show involvement/engagement. I get very strong opinions if I share that I don't vote around most people. Generally I don't bring it up unless asked.

Strong signal that democracy/voting is a religion for most people. Its the invisible kind. When you say you don't believe or don't do it its like blasphemy to them. They feel threatened or angry because you aren't going along. In the US democracy and voting is hammered into our brains in the government schools and constantly in mass media.
