One minor twist: the legislation mandates that one reports to the polling center. The uninformed can select "none of the above" if they are not sure what would be best.

I think it would still encourage meme voting in retaliation for having to show up. "You can force me to do this but you can't force me to do this in good faith."

If the worst you can say about this scheme is: "people may vote randomly" I don't feel that bad. I assume the amount of people that spite vote(!) would be greatly outnumbered by people that actually give a shit (but who may not be able to vote today, due to work obligations)
