What you wrote is true in systems that use the popular vote. It's not true for states that use winner take all under the electoral college.
What's the difference? If you are a minority voter in a non-swing state, your vote is worth zero. That's slightly, but importantly, less than 1/300,000,000.
Is your take that if your vote doesnt go to the eventual winner then its worthless? You factually cannot say that anyones vote is worthless at this point in time.
