If you have no rights, your vote means nothing, under a government with illegitimate excessive power and no right to use that power AND there are no fair judges to keep the government in-check or to make an appeal THEN GOD becomes your judge. "An appeal to Heaven" become a right when all other rights are taken away. We face a situation of Absolute Rule where our liberty matters little.

"And where the body of the people, or any single man, is deprived of their right, or is under the exercise of a power without right, and have no appeal on earth, then they have a liberty to appeal to heaven, whenever they judge the cause of sufficient moment. And therefore, though the people cannot be judge, so as to have, by the constitution of that society, any superior power, to determine and give effective sentence in the case; yet they have, by a law antecedent and paramount to all positive laws of men, reserved that ultimate determination to themselves which belongs to all mankind, where there lies no appeal on earth, viz. to judge, whether they have just cause to make their appeal to heaven.” -John Locke
