Speaker 3: Well, America is this is November four, They're about to

5
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 3: hit the polling booths now. They say that they're expecting

6
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 3: a huge turnout, which means about sixty six percent. That's

7
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 3: the I think one of the highest results I've ever had,

8
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 3: and they're expecting something like that. It can be as

9
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 3: low as fifty percent, you know, it can be below

10
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 3: fifty percent, the number that will decide the government. But

11
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 3: they don't have compulsory voting.

12
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,919
Speaker 2: Well, the twenty eighteen election, that was a forty nine

13
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 2: percent turnout. That was and that was that was a

00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 2: mid teen That was a mid teen midterm on for Obama.

15
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, so if you want to have a say, what

16
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 3: are you going to do? Do you think we do?

17
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 3: You think it's right that we have compulsory voting? Does

18
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:53,200
Speaker 3: it pass the pub test?

19
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:53,599
Speaker 4: Well?

20
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 5: I found it quite bizarre that the so called most

21
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 5: powerful man in the on Earth, the guy with the

22
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 5: fin his buttons for the nuclear bombs, can be put

23
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 5: into position by not even compulsory voting.

24
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: No, absolutely not, because in a democracy people should choose

25
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 1: actually I go through the voting boots and I don't vote.

26
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: I just registered and lock out for me.

27
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 6: Yes, because I value my vote. But unfortunately, having been

28
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 6: an electoral representative for many elections, no, because people are

29
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 6: only turning up to get their name marked off and

30
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 6: not actually casting a vote. I see why we need it,

31
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 6: but unfortunately a lot of the people don't appreciate this

32
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 6: value of what we get to do.

33
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,279
Speaker 4: This is a country that we're supposed to have freedom

34
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 4: of speech and everything. How do you have freedom when

35
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 4: you're being forced to vote and if you don't like

36
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 4: anyone that's there that has to be voted for, you

37
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 4: get penalized because you didn't want to vote for them.

38
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 5: It's short has past the pub chest. Look, we're live

39
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 5: in a very great country that's got a good democracy,

40
00:01:58,040 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 5: and it might be a bit of a plan to

41
00:01:59,440 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 5: guarantee you.

42
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 4: Up every time, so you get the.

43
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 5: Voters are plain they have to sit through all the

44
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 5: campaigning as well. But we're very lucky that we've got compulsory.

45
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: Voting because we know when someone gets elected that everyone

46
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: in the country's participated in it.

47
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 6: Yes, definitely, if you don't vote, you can't complain about it.

48
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 4: If a T kids gets voted in, you will to

49
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 4: stuff as a consequence, as they used to come.

50
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 2: Wise words
