Funny you mention that. When the Supreme Court mandated that states use the one-man-one-vote system for state and local elections that actually DID disenfranchise many people. If you look at states like Maryland for example, people who live outside of the most populated parts of the state have no say in the workings of state government at all.
So move to the more poulated parts and run an effective campaign to change the balot or the representatives that are being elected. Disenfranchisement means you are barred from the process altogether, not that you feel your vote doesn’t count.
As a free country, we are free to influence voters to change their beliefs. That may be difficult, but freedom doesn’t mean things are easy.

The Federal Supreme court robed the States of their republican form of government. Which is totally ironic as the same federal government was meant to help protect the state’s republican form of government.
Their excuses was the U.S. Senate was in the U.S. Constitution but they completely ignored the fact that the State senate along with everything else about the state government was in the state constitution.
That ruling came with in just 1 state shy of a constitutional convention to overturn it. It seems the Federal court has dictatorial powers as long as they can get 13 states to passively back them.
