In New Zealand there is mail-in voting for some 'lesser important things', such as government referrendums on various, usually ridiculous, topics. For the election of government, mail-in voting is one option for citizens overseas at the time, but those in New Zealand must visit a voting station in person. There is no e-voting system here either.
