"No Effect" should have been "Can't Vote Any Harder Than I Already Am" -- nm - Max Jun 26, 07:52 1
- Not necessarily. If you didn’t vote before and won’t now, there’s no effect. -- nm - spamlet Jun 26, 09:54
That actually makes me mad. This is why you always vote, to stop this crap BEFORE it happens. -- nm - Andie Jun 26, 07:46 9
- This is why I like Australia. Everybody votes, always. Get out the vote is irrelevant. -- nm - mafic Jun 26, 07:53 7
  - The turnout in Australia is impressively and consistently high. I had no idea. (NM) - Marlowe Jun 26, 08:02 6
    - Because not voting is the hardest option. Either vote, apply for an exemption, or get (a fairly token) fine. -- nm - mafic Jun 26, 08:11
    - It's mandatory. If you fail to show, you're taken to the outback and left there. -- nm - mud Jun 26, 08:05 4
      - Crocodile Dundee Begins -- nm - Max Jun 26, 09:55
      - It's mandatory here too. And they will take you to the Amazon and leave you there. Still is about 10pp lower than Australia. (NM) - Marlowe Jun 26, 08:13 2
        
        Don’t know what it’s like there, but it’s intensely easy to vote here. People are way more likely to go in and spoil their ballot than not vote. - mafic Jun 26, 08:17 1
        
        It used to be harder to not vote, but it is getting easier. - Marlowe Jun 26, 08:25
- I’m mostly mad at the idiots who are like “so you told me to vote in 2020 and this still happened and now you want me to vote harder?” - Tim Jun 26, 07:51
I’m saying. This combined with the 1/6 hearings has people seriously motivated. Not just to vote, but to run, endorse, donate. - Volnelk Jun 26, 07:15
