Well, I consider it both my duty and my right to vote

Voting should be harder, not easier.

I think right to vote is the same as right to bear arms. Both very important as a citizen. Too bad most people don’t see them as equal. Some want to dismantle the second amendment and they want to dismantle the voting. Neither should have restrictions.

Mandatory Voting is the Liberals’ Holy Grail.

If you were required to vote in order to qualify for a student loan, food stamps or unemployment, they’d never lose an election again.

Voting is a right, not a duty!!????!!!

Screw you jeffie, and anybody that thinks like you, walks like you, talks like you or looks like you...

The entire reason we get libs and commies in congress and the white house is because far too many people think the way you do, you closet case commie....

Or, i guess that survivor may be on the tube...

“For one thing, your vote almost certainly won’t matter.

The odds that any single voter will actually determine how an election turns out are “very, very, very slim,” wrote Freakonomics authors Stephen J. Dubner and Steven D. Levitt in 2005, citing research that analyzed more than 56,000 congressional and state legislative elections sating back to 1898.”

False premise. The aggregate most certainly does matter. While each vote may be only a tiny portion, each still adds to the aggregate.

I do agree voting is not a duty; especially in instances where one is reduced to a false choice between malignant charlatans. Also it is a good general rule for the uninformed and unmotivated to be left in peace on election day.
