Why does my vote not count?

If you read Article II of the Constitution and you think just a little you will discover the president who represents the Union, not the people (people are represented in congress) is elected by the states. The states currently have chosen to employ a popular vote by the people to select their electors who place the states votes by proxy. You vote directly for those who are supposed to represent you. The states representation to the federal government was usurped by the 17th amendment. You will never properly understand the way the government is supposed to work and why it was structured that way without serious study. Your question is uninformed. Every state small or large gets 2 Electors because it has 2 Senators. We were not supposed to vote for Senators either. They originally were elected by state legislatures. If you think business and industry have more influence than you repeal the 17th Amendment.
