From the Australian Electoral Commission's website: http://www.aec.gov.au/enrol/

--

It is compulsory by law for all eligible Australian citizens to enrol and vote in federal elections, by-elections and referendums.

You are eligible to enrol if you:

    * are an Australian citizen, or eligible British subject,
    * aged 18 years and over, and
    * have lived at your address for at least one month.

Interesting, I've never seen this spelling of "enrol" before.

I would also draw penii if voting was compulsory.

Australia uses British English, and enrol is the British spelling.

Ah, the joys of localization.
