I think it would also make the whole process including vote counting more efficient and less costly as it would be automated.
Thanks.
If you don't pay your taxes here I don't see why you should be allowed to vote here. We should actively stop Irish citizens who don't live here from voting.I have been living away for the past five years however, my name is still on the electoral register at home. There must be thousands of others in my situation. Technically emigrants are not allowed to vote though this is not what happened on the gay referendum when Irish people abroad came home in their droves to vote. If online voting became available how would they stop Irish people abroad who are still on the voting register in Ireland from voting?

I think Irish people who have emigrated from Ireland to live abroad should be the first to vote through the postal service. We have residents here who do not pay tax either and they can vote. So, why not for our emigrants?
Unfortunately I won't be in Ireland (normal residence) on polling day. I cannot vote in advance or from abroad but I will be affected by the next Government for the next five years.

I should change my vote to dublin.
I will be driving home to vote though and i dont mind that really
The only point/question i am making/asking is: why not have electronic voting?
The residents who vote here will be subject to the laws made by the politicians they voted for, emigrants will not - which is why they should not be able to vote in general elections.
