I somewhat agree with you. I don't want to encourage uninformed or otherwise apathetic people to vote. For example, the MTV "Rock-the-vote" campaign is nothing but a concerted effort by liberals to get a bunch of stupid kids who otherwise would have sat home smoking pot to go vote for Algore or Hillary Clinton. A high turnout in an election is not necessarily a desirable thing.

As well, we really need to crack down on voter fraud. People who show up to vote need to present proof of identification and citizenship. It is way too easy to pretend you are somebody else and it is way too easy to fill out ballots for those who never show up.
