I understand the idea. I'm pointing out the big flaw in that idea. And I disagree that it's your civic duty to "just vote".
That's how democracies work, the electorate needs to be active and involved every election. Therefore, it is the civic duty of every citizen to participate in the system and cast their vote. You don't have to "guarantee" your vote, but you should still vote on what you think is the best choice every time you get.
