The national system is even more broken. My voting for Biden (or whoever) in California won't help the candidate, because the electoral college system means my vote will be lumped into a state everyone already knows will go for the Democrat.

as I've posted B4, my idea may be irrantionally existential but I see voting as civic responsibility expressing realistic hope for nation, often involving compromise of one's personal ideal choice, esp in times of danger, as in 2016 and 2020.
I'm not sure we do disagree. I think my vote fits within your framework. I realistically hoped that a larger than average turnout for minor party candidates in 2016 would push the political establishment in the direction of necessary systemic change.

I also hoped Trump would lose, but I thought my ability to push the system towards systemic change with my vote was a little higher than my ability to meaningfully support Clinton.
