At this point you might as well say that votes cast by the proxy holder 
are cast by the proxy holder; the only difference the caster makes is 
in who gets the activity and in who gets the bonus points for contrary 
votes; this gives the bonus points to actual caster, and another bit in 
the rules negates the proxee's activity bonus.
