PM Kyriakos Mitsotakis called on Greek citizens to register on the platform to vote by post from around the globe, reminding, via a video on TikTok that the deadline is on Monday.
Mitsotakis stressed that postal voting does not only concern Greeks living abroad. “But the truth is that it concerns every Greek citizen who wants to vote without having to be physically present at the polling station, saving both time and money,” he said, adding.
In particular, absentee voting is for the elderly, our fellow citizens with disabilities, young people who work seasonal jobs, students, pupils who may be preparing for the Panhellenic exams. It even affects those who just want to go swimming on June 9.

“Every time you participate in the electoral process, no matter which party you support, you are ultimately supporting democracy itself. Abstention is not the answer. Now you have an extra reason and an easier way to participate in the elections,” he said.
