In Australia it is compulsory to vote. Well, I should say to have your name marked off the voting register and if you go down to do that, you might as well vote.
I am of the opinion that everyone entitled to vote should do so, because many countries do not have free and democratic elections. To waste the chance to have your say is really strange. Also if you are entitled to vote and don't, then don't complain about those who are elected into office. :)

Just thought that I would let you know that we voted in the State election held here in Australia yesterday. Because we are a bit nomadic without a permanent home, we are still listed on the electoral roll miscellaneous list, which means that we have to vote. Well worth the effort of course, plus not voting would have cost us money in fines. LOL
