Can he? In general, can/do popes vote in their home countries?

    Argentina is the country whose citizenship you cannot legally lose (though dual citizenship is permitted), and they have mandatory* voting. So the Pope is still a citizen of Argentina and did vote or faced charges. I don’t think they allow exceptions.

    Pope is technically head of state or another country so it is probably bad to vote in any election just from the perspective of looks. The pope should be above politics.
