Trump as President* says a lot more about us, as a people, than it does about him

10. Not sure about compulsory.

I understand the sentiment and depending on how it was implemented it might not be bad. As far as I could tell only 29 countries actually have compulsory voting, and of those only Autralia, Belgium, and one canton in Switzerland would be considered developed.

I think that incentives to vote might work better, like making voting a weekend event or making it a national holiday where people must be given time off from work to go vote.

In addition, resources for easier voting need to be implemented like more and better machines, more polling places, and other things.


Republicans will fight this tooth and nail however because they know that more turn out always favors Democratic policies and candidates. Our ideas are better, but their dirty tactics neutralize them.
