| Oct 21, 2020 at 11:26 | comment | added | curiousdannii | @AdamBarnes Several countries have compulsory voting. Only a few voters actually make protest or invalid votes, and they're hardly a waste of time, just a small fraction of all the votes to be counted. | |

| Oct 21, 2020 at 3:15 | comment | added | Adam Barnes | "the more people vote, the better the system works" not necessarily - forcing the uninformed or disenfranchised to vote could lead to more protest votes which are a waste of time at best. | |
| Oct 20, 2020 at 16:26 | comment | added | gen-ℤ ready to perish | I can come firm the cynical one living in Texas in 2020. I see these ads and they’re always geared towards minorities, who tend to poll Democrat and tend to not vote as much in a red state. | |

| Oct 20, 2020 at 7:10 | comment | added | Acccumulation | Simply "would not vote without encouragement" can be a demographic that favors one party over the other. | |
