the whole point of voting is that you live in a democratic country.. and you get to have a say so in how and what goes on....
it is human nature to be heard and to be self-protective - if you had the choice of a crazed muslim jeahadist (sorry no idea how to spell it) at the helm or a rather more level headed and un-relgiously driven leader - who would you go for...? would you even vote?... what would happen if you didn't? .. the more aggressive would likely force themselves into power - and no need to explain which one that would be.....

To answer the question you asked - If noboby voted there would be no government and you would have anarchy which at some point would likey be ursurped by dictatorship - Apathy is in no ones interests.

Then nobody would have the right to complain about what the result would be, because we have that right, and if we don't exercise that right, we get what we get!

There'd always be someone who would vote - even it was the candidate themselves.

That wouldn't happen. You need to be realistic.
