Lewis, that seems like a strange conclusion here--NY is a non-swing state, and there was nothing remotely futile about making sure a Dem was elected to the House.

I share your frustration, having lived in a red state where my vote mattered not at all on any level except the local, but even that was important. No, Missouri, where I lived, is not going to vote for Biden, and probably is going to send the execrable Josh Hawley back to the Senate in a landslide, but, even with all that the GOP supermajority has done to limit local governments, it was still much better to live in a city run by liberals than in the vast neo-Confederate portions of the state.
