actually, ask any poli-sci professor, student or professional and they will tell you that in the end, your vote doesn't really matter.
you should still vote, because it serves as a sway opinion for the electoral college. every once in a while, the popular vote can change the view of an electorate.
but, as a single voter you really don't matter. the electorates will vote how they see fit, based on what their constituents want. and, in the end a single voter doesn't qualify as that.
only lobbiest and groups of constituents change things.
welcome to democracy. anyone who thinks a individual's [popular] vote counts is plain naive.
of course, in contrast, if you don't cast a vote on who you *think* should run the free world, you really have no credibility to bitch and moan when things don't go your way. you had a chance to say, look i don't like this guy so i pick so and so. if you don't take that chance, then don't complain.
