Not to mention that the poor are far less reliable voters than richer people. If everyone in the country voted, Democrats would have a built-in electoral advantage.

Only for so long.  The democrats don't have the best record with actually helping the poor.

Most likely they'd end up being replaced by a third party.

Not really there fault though... as it was said....

"I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is called a disgrace, that two are called a law firm, and that three or more become a Congress!"

A national holiday on election day would be nice.  Though even then i'm not sure that'd raise voter turnout that much.
