"Americans can vote by submitting an absentee ballot. Details are on the US Embassy in the Philippines website."

If Americans vote or have voted absentee this election (depending on which state they are voting in) it is possible that their vote is gathering dust in an obscure corner of a USPS sorting office hahahaha

Best is to refrain.

The best way to offer real solutions is to give the info to a local, have them present it as their solution, much more likely to be accepted coming from a native as opposed to a foreigner.聽 If you cannot find a local to present your ideas then it probably would have failed in any event.

I think one candidates votes will be gathering dust. Maybe the winner should be decided by the weight of the dust.
