Yes, I’m voting … like I have done for the last 55 years. In fact – I already did : by mail-in-ballot.
I too live in a blue state. Lived in two red States & have no desire to ever go back to either one again
… not even for a quick visit.
I think my vote counts more at the local level than the national one … but it just adds to the total national numbers. (and I sleep better at night, knowing that I did what every responsible citizen should do.)
As to The Electoral College : It worked pretty well for over 200 years, but is now just an obsolete & useless holdover from the days before the telephone, computers & TV. It’s an extra step in the process that’s subject to corruption & abuse. As far as this specific election, with all the fanatic ‘loyalists’ in State & Federal government, there’s an opportunity for meddling in the results at every level. Not something that the founders of The Constitution could anticipate.
