No, 1) Mandatory voting is an infringement on personal liberty.
   2) If voting was mandatory it would cause uninformed, uninterested people to vote
   

As someone who lives in a nation where voting is compulsory at federal and state levels, I can definitely agree with point #2, a lot of uninformed people will just donkey vote, or get their name ticked off and leave the polling booth.
