The answer to the question is that any vote always counts more than 100%.
In reality, on average, one single vote often counts double in the United States.Consider these numbers about voters participation at recent elections.
- 2014 Midterm election: 39% (one vote almost counts triple!)
- 2016 Presidential election: 56%
- 2018 Midterm election: 47% 2018
- 2018 Midterm election, State of Utah: 50% 2018
- 2018 Midterm election, Park City: 59% (my vote is only worth 1.7 votes, but that's perfectly fine with me!)
Now, you get the answer to that rather stupid question, “does my vote count?”
