I always find it strange that there might be such a thing as 'too lazy to vote.' I mean, not everyone Dutchman or woman votes, vote turnout tends to be between 70 and 80 percent, but practically every elementary school has a couple of ballot boxes and is open from 8 in the morning to 8 in the evening at minimum. And elementary schools in the Netherlands are everywhere there's people living, the nearest ballot is pointed out to you on the voting card that's mailed to you a month ahead of time that you need to show to be allowed to cast your vote there and it's legal to authorize someone else to vote on your behalf, there's a short form to fill out on the voting card just in case.
Just to highlight how many elementary schools there are; where I'm living now there's 3 of them within 500 meters of my home. The residential zone I was raised? There's [b]at least[b] 5 of them within 1.5 kilometers from my parents' home. On a cursory search.
