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.
