Basic current question

A very basic question on current in a circuit, I thought I understood
it but a recent attempt to get the numbers made me doubt myself.
10v --A--+--B--+

R1 R2

gnd -----+-----+
Say R1=R2=1 ohm
So simplistically, 5V will flow through R1 and R2 each correct?
Since V=IR, I=5A through both R1 and R2 right?
But since electricity has more distance to travel to R2, in reality,
R2=1 + x ohm and will see less voltage, even if the difference is
neglible for practical purposes correct?
TIA.
