paris plage and election





For several years now, midsummer in Paris has been as beautiful as the life of a cicada, but this year seems to be a little different.



It's 38 degrees today too.



Everyone looks kind of tired, and their faces look kind of pale. .



That's why I went to Paris Plage last weekend.



I think people who love Paris know this...



Along the Seine River, a sandy beach appears only during the summer, and it is a small event.



It's been about 5 years since I went here.



I used to go there a little while ago when I lived across the street from the Seine River. .



I just finished walking though!



Well, the story is different.



I went to vote in the House of Representatives election today! ! ! ! ! !



People living overseas can also vote by applying for what is called ``overseas voting rights.''



This application also takes two to three months, but I applied immediately after the Aso Cabinet took office, thinking that there might be an election.



Right now, my bicycle has a flat tire, and the bicycle shop is on vacation, so I can't fix it. . I went there by metro.



First, in advance, go to the embassy → apply to the election commission → your overseas election ticket (or what? your name) will be delivered to you.

Take it to the embassy. After submitting your ID card and overseas election ticket,

Fill out your own express envelope to the Election Commission,



That's when you get your first ballot.



This time, I received two tickets, one for proportional representation and one for single-member elections, and put them in a double-sealed envelope.



It feels quite strict.



This is an even more important vote.



I'm participating from now on too! Do your best, Japan.
