Voting had never worked for me. I've always lived in places with large majorities.

This kind of thinking gets conservative justices power.

Let's take an extreme example.

Does a Democrat vote in Wyoming or West Virginia really make a difference?

Yes. For one when the loser loses the less they win WV or WY the harder it is to claim it was stolen. Let's say Biden got 30% in WV (about normal lol) that's still 3 in ten people. That sends a message and it helps legitimize votes in super blue areas.
