I agree.

Personally I've always voted, but freedom should also mean we have the right not too as well.

I don't think enforced voting is a good idea.

However, educating people about politics, and what their vote means, is a good idea.

If I really couldn't decide who to vote for, I'd go and spoil my voting slip, because they are always counted, and at least my dissatisfaction would be offically noted.
