Incorrect Issue Decision

My description of my country says "voting is compulsory." However, I did not approve this as an issue. I actually decided against compulsory voting. How did this happen? It is incorrect.

Sometimes it happens... different issue choices along the line can change your national description in ways you do not expect at the time.

Six issues ago you received "Should Democracy Be Compulsory", issue #0.

Your current description is: [ 'scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes', 'punitive tariffs protect local industry', 'Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed', 'the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller' ]

Which means that issue has been bumped off. At any rate, if you had "voting is compulsory", that means you must have picked option 2 in the voting issue. Here's the text:

"It's not contradictory at all," argues political commentator $Name. "The fact is, if not everyone votes, the outcome isn't truly representative. Some groups--like elderly gun nuts--vote more often than others. That's why always we always end up with such terrible politicians."

Look familiar?
