Just go the vote, and make sure your family and friends go to give their votes.

I’m not local, I cannot vote over here, but had seen multiple times in modern times voter suppression has been a big deal, it’s easier to make you not to bother to vote than change your mind who to vote.

I had worked brexit UK, where people voted it due they weren’t happy about the PM. As it was good time to vote against him. Without thinking what brexit actually was. So use your voice by voting. What do you wish the future of country will be in this new era.

I know German has issues, as every Europe union contries. If the problems are easy to solve they would have been solved already, don’t belive one tag line promises.

I’m just wanna say, as a fellow user. Just go to vote.

    as an American. vote like your life depends on it.

    because it does.

    not only that, make sure that none of your voting locations are using starlink internet access.

      ? Germany is old-fashioned and when it comes to elections I’m happy that we’re sticking to pen and paper. And actual humans doing the counting.

      On a sidenote - Starlink isn’t that big in Germany. I don’t think I’ve ever read/heard about any public authorities using it.

      We had electronic voting, but it was gone as fast as it came. I voted electronic once in a local election in the early 2000s

      Yeah, voting is essential.

      But don’t worry about starlink, the German voting process happens on paper sheets. The voter has to be identified before the vote. Then all votes get counted by hand and multiple times, submitted by fax and telephone.
