My feeling is that voting *can* make a major change, it just takes
time - mainly because you have to convince a lot of other people.
Changing opinions takes time.  For instance, few would vote for a
party that endorsed slavery or denied the vote to women these days -
whereas this was general political thinking a century ago.  Similarly,
15 years ago plenty of people would have accepted that a vote for
labour was a wasted vote.
