The right to vote in the United States was inspired by the principles of democratic rule found in two ancient civilizations: Gre
ek and Roman Athenian democracy was founded on the idea of direct involvement of its citizens. In the Roman Republic, elected
representatives governed on behalf of the citizens. In both cases, citizens had a voice in government, either directly or through elected
councils, and were expected to participate by voting
Democratic government in the United States gives citizens the opportunity to vote for their representatives, but many people choose
not to exercise that right. In many countries, however, compulsory voting laws exist that require all citizens to vote in elections.
In a well-developed essay that includes an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion, explain whether the United States should
enact a compulsory voting law or let voting remain optional. Be sure to address counterclaims in your essay and include reasons and
evidence to support your argument.
I think that they should let voting remain optional because there are some people who cant decide who to vote and it will put a lot of stress on them so it will push them to vote randomly. You can also die from too much stress! That is why I think they should let voting become optional.
If they enact a compulsory voting law then a lot of people will probably protest and there will be a lot of danger and riots because of it. When there are alot of riots it will lead to a nation crisis and people will suffer a lot because of it.
This is just my opinion and people might disagree with me but I personally think voting should remain optional.
Motivations for colonization: The French colonized North America to create trading posts for the fur trade. Some French missionaries eventually made their way to North America in order to convert Native Americans to Catholicism.
