It's compulsory in AustraliaOn one hand, politicians don't just pander to old people or special interest groups "because they're the only ones that vote", but on the other hand it turns into a bit of a popularity contest sometimes.

Yes, like me, you were watching Brewster's Millions on Sunday :DHowever, that was different from my proposal as that was just another party.
With the none of the above section, it would just be registered abstinence.
