Everyone has the right to make the decision on whether or not they vote. To make a law to mandate voting won't provide the results you are looking for. It is the same with religion. You can't force someone to participate if they do not want to. It only breeds contempt. Anytime you force someone to bend to your way of thinking it will have the opposite affect. Let people make up their own mind on voting. Young people inspire other young people to vote. People they respect telling them to get out and vote motivate them to do it. Making it a federal law would ensure less young people vote.

Personal choice and freedom are the hallmarks of our country.
