 Except if you live outside the country. Also everyone age 16 and older

Sweden rejected a mail-in voting proposal.
Italy rejected a mail-in voting proposal.
Ukraine rejected a mail-in voting proposal.
Russia and Japan do not permit mail-in voting.

 If you're in the gulag do you still have to vote?
 

No Middle Eastern country permits mail-in voting.

 All those democracies... I'm sure they'd love to vote out the Saud
family.
 

No Latin American country permits mail-in voting.
 In the United States, Democrats love mail-in voting and trying their damnedest to get instituted everywhere.

 Just because your pets got blank ballots in your state doesn't make it
poorly implemented everywhere else in the country. Republican party
officials are complete morons for NOT convincing their partisans to vote
by mail. It's votes in the bank!
 Democrats don't get an advantage from mail-in voting.

In New Zealand there is mail-in voting for some 'lesser important things', such as government referrendums on various, usually ridiculous, topics.
For the election of government, mail-in voting is one option for citizens overseas at the time, but those in New Zealand must visit a voting station in person.
There is no e-voting system here either.
