A state without postal vote and against ballot boxes

We want a state where someone is in charge of postal voting and can be held accountable to the justice system for preventing thousands of people from casting their ballot, every time.

We could find examples by the handful. We want a state where someone is in charge of postal voting and can be held accountable to the justice system for preventing thousands of people from casting their ballot, every time.

We want a state where bringing out the ballot boxes to broaden our freedom so that 2.3 million people can voice their opinion is not a punishable crime. A state that does not doctor documents written by the European Commission. One where the governor of the supervising bank does not put the financial system at risk with thoughtless public statements1. A state that does not pressure the European Parliament to reward an organization chaired by someone who has had to resign amidst apologies following a lawsuit for making anonymous threats and shouting abuse on Facebook2 --an award for showing "exceptional commitment" to "mutual understanding".
