Everyone gets 1 vote, but not all votes are worth the same. That is true for any voting system.

To put it another way, all votes are equal, but some votes are more equal than others. That sounds vaguely familiar…

That seems like an odd claim to me. In a nationwide popular voting system, what votes aren't worth the same?
