Compulsory voting is a system that requires citizens of a nation to vote, elevating voting from a right to a duty. In Australia, compulsory voting is required for its citizens, with some caveats that make it particularly enticing for citizens to vote. California has passed many bills to increase voting turnout and encourage voting. The California Assembly brought forward Assembly Bill 2070 in 2020, introducing the possibility of compulsory voting to California. While I wish that compulsory voting is something that could be implemented sooner rather than later, there are steps to take in the meantime.
