In Belgium, this is the case. The counterargument is that this way, people who have no clue about what's happening in the world will go to vote. Unfortunately, these are perhaps the individuals who are awake but just want nothing to do with politics, and as a result, we get a skewed election outcome that doesn't reflect what the citizens actually want.
Then there are the non-voters because they believe that no one, absolutely no one, is trustworthy in politics.
i’ve also met some people like this they think our country is beyond saving so there’s no point in voting anymore they believe it’s either a) there’s no good politician running or b) even if they vote the results will be manipulated
our government is full of corrupt individuals and in all departments there’s a lot of suspicious activities i have no idea when or how this will end
