Aren't you blaming the victim of our mathematically flawed electoral system, First Past the Post?

Say for example you voted for
Andrew Yang in the iowa democratic primary. He drops out super Tuesday (IIRC). You no longer have any say in the Democratic primary. If we switched to a more representative electoral system, these people can still have their vote count.
These people could still put Yang during the general election, while still having their vote count for the candidate with the better chance to win.
There is also no reason for our multi state primaries to occur over many days. This ensures the media has maximum influence on the results.
