Can someone help me understand this question?

"Your Vote Is Useless." You read an editorial with this title in your local paper that says political and civic participation are pointless and serve no valuable purpose in American society. In a well-written paragraph, defend or argue against that perspective. Include at least two examples of how a person can participate in a democratic society.

Defending: Your vote is useless because of the following reasons. Even if your vote goes to a popular candidate "winner of the popular vote" it can be waved off if the representatives of each state select the other option. That is one example i can give you. That is why our country is crap well our government at least.
