No it's not. That's a stupid, idiotic thought.
There is no way the whole population will decide en masse to refrain from voting and if that became even a general thought, the extremists would all turn up to vote and in the unlikely event that actually happened and they achieved their aim, they'd then claim "It was a democratic vote, everyone had their chance...."
But the "extremists" would only constitute 10% of the population. So the Major Parties couldn't claim they had a mandate from the people.
The 90% of sensible people who didn't vote, could then distance themselves entirely from the whole stupid farrago.
