If a law came out that people had to vote or else be heavily fined or interned in prison, the economy would collapse. 84% of Dover's electorate would fall under one of the two categories.
Many of those who were heavily fined would be unable to pay the rent, or the mortgage, so might end up asking for benefits.
Of those put in prison, none would be able to work during that time. Factories and offices would be largely empty.
Many children would be seeing their parents carted off to prison, and who would look after them?
Because many candidates would refuse to stand under the slogan 'vote me or you will go to prison', there would not be many candidates left to vote for anyway.
