It may not be the person you voted for, but there is someone that’s supposed to represent your community.

That's a weird take on politics. "Hitler comes from my place so he represents me."

As a non-EU European I vote on country politics at the national elections, and local politics at the county elections. That way I have local representation in local matters, and national representation at national matters.
The current right wing surge in Europe is mostly because people don't like the amount of Muslim immigrants and most countries have only far right parties that rides on that matter. Plus Russian influence I assume.

You do not get a good political landscape with one seat districts that can even be gerrymandered. Every fucking US state house is divided in DEM and REP, that's not healthy.
