From a pragmatic point it would be easier for the propaganda apparatus to explain away a smaller than usual turnout (voters are lazy, etc.) than a larger than usual this party vote.
Either way they'll do their best to bury it though.
That's why I advocate "undervoting". Go vote, cast a ballot, but leave the spots with no good options blank. It shows that you aren't a "lazy" voter, actually voted, and chose the hidden "none of the above" option.
