Fine is (Aust) $200. Letter followed by a summons and court appearance if letter is disregarded.

Jan. Really?
You are required to vote?
What is the fine?
How do they make you pay?
What is the reasoning behind the law?
If you blog about this, I’d like to follow it. Blog on!

Interesting! It’s not compulsory at all in New Zealand.

Yes, here in Asutralia we have compulsory voting at federal, state and municipal levels and fines for failing to vote.

That’s better. Now I don’t have to read between the lines or whatever to work out what you are saying. Am using the latest IE but have been considering switching to another browser altogether or even some version of Linux instead of XP Pro. Will leave that to my techie sons.
