A donkey vote is an informal vote, a vote for nothing. Basically, in a compulsory vote, if someone doesn't want to vote but doesn't want to pay a fine, they do a donkey vote. They may just hand in a blank ballot, or fill it out incorrectly, such as making a mistake and scribbling out their first choice, or writing too many numbers in. They may deface the ballot in some way, which renders it a donkey vote. They may even add their own choice of candidate, e.g. "Mickey Mouse", which also renders the ballot invalid, hence a donkey vote.
