Mandatory voting would put an end to at least some forms of voter suppression. That is, the state has a responsibility to get a ballot from each person eligible to vote rather than it being incumbent upon each individual to figure out how to he/she can manage to vote.

No. But when you get your drivers license, you should automatically be registered to vote.
