I don't really think of politics but the recent american election you wonder, is there any point to voting?

A lot of people might disagree with me on this one and I'm not from the US, but the voting system seems kinda unfair to me. As far as I understand all the district votes go to the side that has majority for one state which pretty much means if the difference is like 2-4% pretty much screw the other half of people. Wouldn't it be more fair if the vote was by district? I know it'd be much more work but this way a state could vote for both candidates.

@DrSunnyTheSkeptic in some states the properties are huge so that land owner's vote would have many times the impact that someone in the city would have.

@Tastyfrzz Properties? I thought the district vote was by person, what does the amount of properties have to do with it? Or do you mean like an entire district could be occupied by less people and their vote could have a massive impact on the district
