Strictly speaking, if you wanted to vote for Romney, you could roll as many fair dice as you like until one comes up greater than 2, leaving a ~1 chance of voting for whoever you intended in the first place.

It depends a bit on how you parse the sentence. If you roll 5 times you didn't role a dice but five dice.
