Bill on postal voting submited to the relevant committee for processing
"The new parliamentary year begins on Monday with a bill, which I believe has a special symbolism. On Monday morning we will be in the Parliament to defend the bill that establishes for the first time in the history of the Greek state the institution of the postal vote," Interior Minister Niki Kerameus said on Sunday at an event in Patras.
"The postal vote is a measure, which concerns all Greeks who live abroad, but also all Greeks who live in our country," she added.
As Kerameus said, "postal voting is a measure that deepens democracy" and stressed: "Whoever is afraid of postal voting, is afraid of participation. It is a measure of democracy, that is, how we will bring more people to the polls, how we will strengthen participation and how we will motivate our fellow citizens to express their will."
