Backwoodsman you have not presented a logical argument, Forcing people to vote does not guarantee that people will vote for establishment parties., or get a result that you might like, eg non election in lincolnshire of Jenkins Australia has a high proportion of spoiled votes, it would appear to be as a result of people being forced to vote. what is the point of forcing people to vote so that the turnout is bigger , if it just results in more spoiled votes and an election that succeeds in returning the same candidates who would have been elected before people were forced to vote. you two are suggesting authoritarian rules just so that the electorate has a bigger turnout. Authoritarianism at its worst
