100 percent agreed. Local politics will always be the more important elections you should vote for if you live in a bigger country. That's where the real changes to your living situations can be felt as opposed to the President. A lot of people overlook this and I would argue that they should show up on election day anyway so that they can vote downballot for any local elections and referendums.
The electoral process in my country is a little different, so I don't vote for the President but I do vote for the Communist party during legislative elections. Then I vote on referendums or the Communist party at the local level. We've gained some ground in the area which is always nice to see.
