For the vast majority of people, it's federal. There's a reason why turnout is so low in midterm elections compared to Presidential elections.
Federal elections objectively matter more because they have more widespread impact, but all of them are important.

I tend to agree with you. What I find unfortunate is that we have less say in federal decisions given how the House and Senate are set up.

How do we have less say?

I should rephrase my statement. My intent was to say that the federal government is out of control and that most of what they do is a power grab. Examples include, income tax rate many times higher than the state rate, the ability to randomly create departments Where the need is questionable and frankly just doing whatever they want. Compare this to a state level where the people of the state are closer to the politics and have the ability to affect change easier.
