A postal vote, at last

Skepticism - whether sincere or spurious - of the postal vote can no longer be justified. The system works and has defied its detractors.

It worked simply and reliably, which is why it can also be expanded to cover parliamentary elections, hence also increasing the ability of citizens residing outside of Greece to exercise their right to vote. 

The opposition parties no longer have an alibi to explain why they will not support the measure, which has passed the test of the European elections with flying colors.
