Yes, which is why voting is not enough: you have to campaign for the candidates you want to see. The ranked-choice system would fix this but that's off-limits for now.

How does "campaigning" for the candidates you want to see make a difference if you're not going to vote for them?

I didn't say voting is pointless. You should go vote too. But if I go vote in the US I'll be arrested.
