How would you translate "you have my vote" into German?

Question

In English, you'd say to candidates that you'll vote for them. How would you say this in German? Something like:

Hey Stefano, go for it. You have my vote.

Another common alternative:

Meine Stimme hast du.

I prefer this word order because it emphasizes that I support the person's idea (stress on meine).

To make it short:

Meine Stimme ist Dir sicher.

Wörtliche Übersetzung:

Du hast meine Stimme.

Would be OK, but here are more ideas:

Ich werde dir meine Stimme geben. // Dir geb ich meine Stimme
Du bist mein Mann / meine Frau. (and implicit you add: dem ich vertraue or auf den ich setze)
Auf dich setz' ich. (Note: setzen is the word for bet on the horses)

Literally it means: "You can count on me" _{(no matter what, if that person proofed to be trustworthy in the past.)}
