Voting IS Compulsory in Australia, i think it would work better if it wasn't, and there were no preferences, a winner takes all type of election, the people who took an interest in politics and who are more likely to make an informed decision would vote, and the masses who don't care and can't be bothered educating themselves as to who they are voting for wouldn't and wouldn't be duped by a system they may not fully understand as to where their vote is going...
