    Nah optional is good but at least make it a holiday so everyone has the option to vote. Many don’t because they’re working all day and the nearest voting center is two hours away because Republicans closed down as many voting centers as they possibly could and waiting in line to vote takes hours.

    Honestly, they’re real shit people constantly trying to stop people from voting. Republicans hate it when people vote.

      optional voting

      Republicans hate when people vote and try to avoid having people vote

      The lines are a problem that can be dealt with. I fail to see why optional voting is considered ideal given the second quote.

      Fuck that. Mandatory.

      Being a citizen isn’t free. I expect the absolute best from my government ( lots of work to go on their part), and I accept the personal responsibility of being a proper citizen. (Pay taxes, sit as a juror, vote, etc).
