My general assemblyman has run unopposed since I've been old enough to vote; my congressman's district is so jerrymandered he's got better job security than a licensed plumber.

Then volunteer to phone bank for someone in a swing state where a vote may make the difference, and write other representatives. It's not illegal to tell other reps that you feel under-represented and the issues you are concerned about
