We also vote on a Saturday and the last few elections I’ve had to stand in line for a combined time of about 2 minutes.

if you don’t vote then you don’t get a right to complain about policies that are in place 🤷🏼♀️

The thing is, people here in Australia are more politically literate because you have to know what’s going on to cast your vote. A donkey/inappropriate/vandalised vote isn’t counted.

Daisy (Taylor's Version) :
You dont even have to fill in the form, you can just show up, get your name ticked off and walk away. And if you dont, just pay $25 aud. If you dont vote you are putting everyone at a disadvantage

I find however, having compulsory voting means the average Australian voter IS more informed - as if you HAVE to vote, why not at least read about who to vote for

The importance of compulsory voting is that it compels the government to make voting as accessible as possible for everyone! It’s less about individual obligation and more about protecting the rights of the many.

lol, hilarious, let’s have them copy us, the country with 350m should copy the system that something like 5/196 countries, of which includes North Korea. The country with PM turnover every 2 years.

The audacity to badger the world and rage wars in the name of democracy and not ensure voting is compulsory in your own country is a unbelievable

If you don’t vote, you can’t complain about who got voted in.

If the government can force a woman to carried a fetus to term against her will and sometimes against her health why can't it force all people including men to enter a voting booth?

The people who ARE voting are not educated on the policies so what would be the difference if it was compulsory haha might push people to idk.. learn?

We DO have a choice if we vote or not. We can either vote, or draw a dick and balls on the ballot, but compulsory voting ensures no one is suppressed due to voting accessibility. Voting is very accessible here.
