Re: Enforced Voting.
I was told when i was a kid that if you didnt vote you didnt have a right to complain about anything because even if the one you voted for didnt get in at least you made your voice heard.
I've been out canvassing many times since then and when someone has said to me that they werent voting i told them what i was told when i was a kid. I said it is your right to vote and it is also your right not to vote but when something goes wrong and you want to complain who will you go to? I've changed peoples minds with that quote ive seen them walking out of the polling stations and theyve said that they'd thought about what i said and agreed with it and so theyve voted. A few of them said they'd voted for the party i am in and others have voted for a different party and i said as long as you vote i'm not bothered who you vote for just as long as you have voted.
I will be voting on Thursday
