Rejected petition Government should make it possible for people to vote online or via apps

In the wake of the recent EU referendum, it’s clearly evident that turnout for voting between the age group of 18 -24 was the lowest.
Giving an option of voting online or via Apps would definitely help to engage the youth of this nation in taking important decisions.
