Lmao, as if your little insignificant vote would actually make a statistical difference, electoral college or otherwise. People should vote so they have permission from nobody to complain about a result they had no significance influence in changing? Get real.

The idea that votes are insignificant have spread to millions of people and suddenly those who haven't been throughly disillusioned have way more influence.  Please snap out of it. In absolute terms every single vote is statistically insignificant.  Should no one vote then?

This is about no one but yourself. Should you vote knowing that your one vote means nothing? Don't see why you'd waste your time. You're not making a difference. You're just partaking in a nonsensical social event for the principal of it. Kim Kardashian tweeting that people should vote for Bernie will have an exponentially greater impact on the elections then your vote ever will.

In fact, Kim K tweeting to vote Bernie and then not voting would have a greater impact on his nomination than her tweeting nothing and then voting Bernie. The only disilusionment is the idea that the individual vote matters.
