It totally is when you are talking about the two major parties. People love to think, between Republicans and Democrats, one party is better than the other. Dems blame Republicans for destroying the middle class. Republicans blame Dems for keeping people dependant on governmental aid and whittling away the rights of the "God fearing man." Truth be told, neither party has anyone's interest at heart except their own.
I was truly hoping this past presidential election would open people's eyes to the fact that there are mote than 2 choices out there. There are, middle of the road, politicians that find the grey area between our "black and white" politics. Alas, I was wrong and one of the giants still won.
As I had said, presidential elections are kind of a waste. Your vote just goes to elect whatever electors get to decide for your entire state. The electoral college then decides who it is you vote for. Mid-term and local elections however is really where your voice can be heard. It's a basic count the vote system in which the majority wins. Every vote, in that sense, truly matters.
