Up to 45,000 Wisconsin voters were blocked from voting in 2016 because of the state's voter ID law. Trump won the state by 22,000 votes.http://bit.ly/2JP3Nwa

Difference between Australia and the USA - here it’s illegal NOT to vote. In the US it appears it is illegal (at least for some) TO vote. You have a strange idea of Democracy and how it works

Never knew that about Australia. Perhaps it's time for the US to consider such a law. Would love to hear some of our representatives try to argue against it.

I’ll argue against it right here: The problem with our voting system is that we rarely have people to vote *for* rather than *against*. Forcing people to pick from two crap choices just makes those choices worse over time.

Your point may be true but not sure why that makes requiring participation a bad idea.

Requiring participation in a scenario where your only two choices are crap means that the parties know you *must* pick one of those two, so they have no reason to give us a good candidate who works for the people. They just need a very slightly better candidate than the other.

Non-voting is power in reserve for someone to come along and *earn* those votes.
