Petition · past parliament

Honour the 2021 planned elections, even if it entails all-postal voting.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Electoral Commission to make provisions for all-postal voting (on the assumption that Covid-19 restrictions will still be in place at that time) and then hold the elections that were postponed from 2020 as well as those due for 2021.
We believe that any further delay in holding these elections will result in a loss of belief in the democratic process by the people and provide civil unrest.
