As an Israeli living aborad I wasn't able to vote in the elections.
1. when they publish the number of people who didn't come to vote, do they include the number of Israelies who are living abroad or who left the country for extended periods of time?
2. About the celebrated proposed non-voting fine;
Do they intent to impose a fine about people such as myself?
3. Not that I am eager to vote but I pose this question: why can't I send my vote with an envelope through the mail like they do in so many other countries (USA). Don't they think that allowing me to vote will encourage my on-going interest in my country of origin?
