    This wasn’t meant to be a “gotcha!” but go reread the original comment. They don’t say “didn’t think their vote for president mattered,” just “didn’t think their vote mattered.”

    It’s important because, as the oc pointed out, a lot of people end up not voting in consequential races because they abstain from voting at all. It’s a real problem, as we’re all seeing veeeery clearly right now.
