I will argue that the view expressed in this editorial is a false one. Civic participation is extremely important both for our institutions and for our citizens. People often think that voting is pointless because each vote counts so little. However, it is a mistake to underestimate its importance. Many elections have been won with a very small advantage. Moreover, if everyone believed this, then elections would not work.
More importantly, there are many ways in which citizens can participate in the political life of their country that do not involve voting. Citizens can try to run for office. They can also get engaged in local issues in which they would have more impact. Social movements and peaceful protests are other ways in which citizens can express their views and ensure that they are being heard.
