In recent elections, turnout has ranged from about 50% to 60% of the voting-age population.
But there is a simple change the US could make to boost turnout dramatically, something that has worked in at least 26 other democracies.
The government could make Americans vote.
President Barack Obama has endorsed the idea, and yet it has never taken hold in the US, for a variety of reasons. But many experts think it's a good idea. . . .
In the US, compulsory voting has started to enter the mainstream conversation. In May of last year, Obama publicly endorsed compulsory voting for the first time, telling a crowd in Cleveland that "it would be transformative if everybody voted" specifically because of the class-bias effect.
