Whatever allowances made for you in the hopes that you vote for a better world, with the knowledge that you would, allows for bad actors to utilise the same means impose their views.
So if you can vote remotely for an election under which you will not live, it is all well and good to vote for stronger public programmes and education and healthcare but the remote votes for authoritative lunatics will get the same weight.

well… just to say, I’d never vote for austerity, or to cut education. cutting education in the US is partially what got us into this mess
