Of course it counts. The machines do a numerical count, then send in the results. I am asking if you think it matters. The approval ratings for congress have always been historically low. Our taxes go to other blood thirsty countries, it shouldn't surprise a soul that our politicians have acted contrary to the public's wishes. Yet, Americans walk around like it's all okay. I guess as long as we vote, everything will be just fine. It's not fine. We vote, nothing changes. We vote again, nothing changes. And we vote again and again...and again...and nothing.
That's why 2016 was so much fun to watch. Trump slipped in there and gummed up everything.
