I' have missed one election ever and that was for European parlament other than that I always have voted I see it as my duty and it gives me the right to bitch and moan over the current government.

It is more or less the same in the UK. I can't even remember how I got onto the voting role here but I am. Every now and then you get something in the mail asking you to update the people of voting age in your home and you send that in. Then when it is coming up to an election you get your polling card in the mail and you bring that to the voting station on the day.
It is kind of neat being able to vote both here and the States (I am a citizen in both). I just had my absentee ballot for the US election come through the post from the States yesterday and I sent it off today. So, I have already voted.
