Man what a shit way to think.
Unfortunately it is the honest way. One individual vote has no effect in a pool of millions.
That’s not the point. If everyone believes their one vote doesn’t matter then yes, continue on with this futile thinking as it will surely not make a difference.
Ideally, it is one divided by population. In practice, because of the electoral college, and because money is speech are corporation are people, it is still way way less than 0.000'000'003
