Answer:

Will be an informed or thoughtful vote

Explanation:

Mandatory voting is an effect of law which requires eligible citizens to register and vote and imposes penalties on those who fail to do so.

Since 1924, Australian citizens over the age of 18 have been required to vote in federal elections, by-elections and referendums, and since 1984, voting became compulsory for Indigenous Australians. Since voting has been made compulsory for eligible Australian citizens, an average turnout of 90% has always been recorded in any voting exercise. Citizens that fail to participate in the general elections are  Fined ranging from 20 Australian dollars for missing a federal election, up to 79 Australian dollars for skipping a state poll.

As free citizens, people should be allowed to decide whether or not to participate in a voting exercise or not.  Forcing apathetic or uneducated citizens to vote steers the nation’s political destiny towards populism. An apathetic voter may cast a blank or marred ballot as a protest. Others may vote for a candidate without considering what benefits the decision will have on the nation because they are just being compelled to vote and not of their own volition.

Educating voters on the benefits of voting is a better way of enhancing mass voting than mere compulsion. Sensitization will allow citizens to see the need to vote and make a thoughtful decision on who to vote for.
