bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Most people don't know about the electoral college.

Explanation:

As the author says, he votes since it's his civic obligation to do so, but he has no idea whether or not his vote is really counted. After a series of votes, he finally realized the electoral college in the 2016 elections. Even though this person was a dedicated voter, they had no idea what the electoral college was.

Explain the best way to determine point of view
Leto [7]
To figure out point of view (POV), look for the PRONOUNS.

First person: told FROM the narrator's/author's point of view: uses the pronoun "I"
Second person: told directly TO the reader: uses the pronouns "you/yours" (for what it's worth, this POV is rare.)
Third person: told as an observation ABOUT the characters: uses the pronouns "he/she/it/they/his/hers/its/theirs"
