    Not true at an individual level. Where I live, no way of voting or not voting would have mattered. The same was true where I used to live years ago. In many places it’s clear my vote doesn’t matter every single time and the outcome would not have changed in most of the election categories.

    Therefore I do not actually have choice.

      Sure, and same. Some of us in the US did get the luxury of protest vote. How’d you do in local? I’m not even a democrat. First time I voted down ticket.
