Obama: mandatory voting would change political landscape
President Obama wondered aloud Wednesday whether it was time for the United States to consider mandatory voting. "In Australia and some other countries, there's mandatory voting," Obama said at an economic event in Cleveland. "It would be transformative if everybody voted — that would counteract money more than anything." There's a political reason Democrats in the U.S. would flirt with the idea. "If everybody voted," Obama maintained, "then it would completely change the political map in this country." [NPR]
