You should at least be required to show up at the polling place.

What do you suggest we do with the millions that don't?  People don't always follow the law, you know.

Countries with compulsory voting generally levy a fine.

Oh, so it has more to do with revenue collection than any actual concern for civil participation. Roll Eyes

I'm pretty sure that the revenue collected is insignificant.
