Is the choke balancing I1 and I2 ?
Like Jim Lux said, the choke FORCES balance AT THE POINT WHERE IT IS
APPLIED by removing the only other path for current, common mode current
on the transmission line. So a choke applied AT THE FEEDPOINT forces I1
to be equal to I2.
And the currents from antenna to ground? Does them count?
You need to study how antennas and transmission lines work. That's
beyond the scope of an email reflector. :)
Current and voltage both vary along the length of both antennas and
transmission lines. The ends of an antenna are an open circuit, but with
capacitances as shown in that drawing. If there were zero capacitance,
the current would be zero at the ends and the voltage would be infinite,
but thanks to the capacitance, current is very small and voltage is very
high.
The method shown in the drawing for feeding a vertical dipole is not the
only one. See this one

and this implementation for Field Day.

You otta be ashamed, Guy. :) Go BUILD something designed for the
application and the frequency using my Choke Cookbook. k9yc.com/RFI-Ham.pdf
