No, the vote for president is called the popular vote and that does not count. When you cast your vote for president, you are actually voting for the electors to vote for the president.
Only that citizens have the right to vote for a US Representative if they are able to vote in the largest house of their state's legislature. People did not have the right to vote, granted by the Constitution, for anything else including Senators and the President/Vice President. Some states did have popular voting for Senators and Presidential Electors at the time, but it was not required. It is still not required for states to allow popular voting for Presidential Electors, however all states practice this.
The people who are voting have a lawyer that does it
The United States Congress consists of the Senate and the House of Representatives. Both Senators and Representatives are responsible for representing the people of the states they serve. This involves voting and writing bills in the United States Congress. There are, however, some major differences between a United States Senator and a Representative, beginning with voting privileges. For example, a Senator has the privilege of voting on whether or not to confirm the President's judicial nominees; United States Representatives do not have this right or responsibility.
I think it's when it seems like the people of a society have a say in the society/government but really don't. An example would be voting for a president. If controlled participation was in place it didn't matter who you voted for because "said person" will actually become president either way.

Gerald Ford was the only president in United States history who was never elected by the voting public.
The people do not elect the President. When you vote for president, you are really voting for members of the electoral college. The electoral college will then choose the president. There are only 538 votes that count in a presidential election.
