No doubt, she and I will be strongly supporting this, for many of the reasons that he shared. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7116541\" data-originallang=\"en\">My question is with respect to the other jurisdictions from around the world that have already taken this step. He mentioned Austria and Germany, for example. Could he share more about their experience and the efficacy this has had in increasing voter participation? </p>",
