Let’s not forget, Mike, that voting was also mandatory in the Soviet Union.  The totalitarian communists used this fact to claim that the regime always had the support of “the people.”  That of course is exactly the same argument that all politicians in all democracies use when they insist that it is your HOLY DUTY to vote.  It is also the motivation of the totalitarian statist in the White House.
