Speaking from the point of view of a US citizen, you do not HAVE to vote at any age of 18 years or beyond. However this is a right that should never be taken for granted.

It depends on the country. If you live in Australia, it is compulsory to vote once you reach age 18, no matter how old you are, as long as you are of sound mind.

What percentage of white men vote in elections these days?

Approximately 70 percent of all white men in the United States ages 18 and over are registered to vote, and about 63 percent of all white American men actually participated in the last presidential election year of 2008. From those figures, we can assume that about 52.9 million white males voted in the 2008 General Elections, making up about 40.3 percent of all the votes cast. In the 2010 congressional elections, white men made up approximately 38 percent of all participating voters. Only white women represented a larger percentage of the votes cast (40 percent).

Do people really vote for the president If not then who really votes for the president?

The people actually vote to the electoral college. They are the real people who elect the president. However, they take in great consideration the popular vote. For example, just because over 70% of them want a president It doesn't necessarily mean they will elect him/her. They will use the people's votes too.


How do Brazilians vote?

Brazil was the first country in the world to conduct fully electronic elections. Electronic voting was first introduced to Brazil in 1996. by using out dated machines like a old fashion phone booth since it is mandority to vote in Brazil it keeps track of everything.These machines are called urnas, they are portable electronic voting machines, and it has a backup in case of power failures. Voters punch in several digits to vote -- and are no longer obliged to write out a candidate's name. Printers have been affixed to a small number of the machines, producing an auditable paper trail. But congress is now planing on doing away with the paper trail is that printerless machines will speed up the voting processIn Brazil it is quite different it is mandatory for a literate person between 18 and 70 years old to vote. A person is allowed to vote if they are 16, 17, or if they are illiterate, or over 70 but at these levels it is voluntary. In Brazil, if you fail to vote in elections, you are banned from getting a passport before having voted in the two most recent elections, which can delay your passport for years. Indeed this type of, compulsory voting law isn't enforced at all; the hope is that the existence of the law is enough to encourage people into turning out. The law exists more to strengthen the idea of the civilian's responsibility than to force people to go and vote. In many places, this works, although not as effectively as where the law is more strictly enforced but it does work compared to the percent of people who actually vote in the United States. In Brazil 80% actually vote and only 60% of Americans actually turn out to vote.
