#JAPAN: Diet Approves Law Allowing Voting At Train Stations, Shopping Centers

[world politics news]


Japan’s Diet enacted Wednesday a bill to revise the public offices election law to allow voters to cast ballots for national and local elections at train stations, shopping centers and other facilities. The legislation will come into force on June 19, when the country's voting age is to be lowered from 20 to 18 under another amendment to the same law made last year.
