Hey Prof
I don’t know much about US politics other than what i read here, but isn’t it true that it is NOT compulsory to vote in the US?
If this is the case, if less than half the population (or less than the required amount) do not vote, that would mean they would have to do elections all over again right?
A friend was telling me here after our election that it would be better that it wasn’t compulsory to vote, because if people didn’t like the candidates, and then didn’t vote, if enough people don’t vote, and continued not to vote, they would have to change the candidates if they wanted order..
To me, that sounds more logical than voting for someone just because they are there..
I mean if more than half the country decided they didn’t want any of the candidates, they would have to keep changing until someone liked was up right…
I know it probably wouldn’t happen.. but just a thought..
It’s compulsory to vote here.. If you don’t, you get fined. The problem with our country is that people don’t research before they vote.. then you get someone like Kevin Rudd as the prime minister… Sheesh!
Good luck
