Betcha they want blank ballots!
The Blue state of Illinois, an appendage of Chicago, is contemplating a bill to make voting compulsory (https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_701f6412-4507-44d0-901c-9e7b65cc095e.html).
Do I need to tell you this is a project hatched by Democrats?
What if you don’t like any of the candidates on the ballot and don’t want to vote for any of them? No problem! Blank ballots, that’s all it’ll take. In what must be the understatement of the year, a Republican rep called the scheme “a slippery slope.” Gee, ya think?
As yet there are no punishments attached to the bill; but they’re sure to come. Fine people for not voting. And of course that’ll be handled in an even-handed and fair way [32-minute break for sardonic laughter].
We ought to have a lottery to guess what’s next. Non-citizen voting? Wait, never mind, they’re already doing that.
