   Overseas Singaporeans who registered to vote abroad just received emails with voting details containing their district information and logistics for voting.

   For me, I will walk down the street to Market St to our San Francisco consulate, show my digital ID on my phone and cast my vote there.

   I like the provision that anyone who registerd to vote abroad but happens to be home on the day of 3 May can also just go to a local in-person polling station. You just have to make a declaration that you haven’t already voted.

     Any time I was in Singapore for an election, I usually signed up to be a vote counter and poll worker. Feels weird to be far from that now.

     @stadsplanering like with most of the worst things about the U.S., the worst things are that way because it benefits someone. ;/

     @skinnylatte Isn’t it amazing how easy countries can make it possible to vote if they just want to. 👍👍

     For me as a Swede it is also fairly easy to vote even if I am abroad.

     Also makes me think about how ridiculous hard many states in the USA makes it to vote for their eligible voters. 🤦♂️🤦♂️
