Incorporating the buzzword currently in favor in the JW lexicon, the Society's spokesperson (in Spain) in this video (the Spanish Tele 2 interview program appears approximately halfway through the file) briefly glosses that voting in political elections is a matter of CONSCIENCE for JWs.
As has been cited elsewhere on this DB, the current WTS stance allows JWs to make a pretence of democratic participation where this is required by local laws, i.e., lands where the physical appearance of voting (attending a polling station, entering a booth, or submitting a valid ballot paper) is mandatory. The WTS-trained "conscience" of a participating JW would probably inspire the "voter" to fall just short of indicating an actual candidate/political party during this manoeuvre.
More of interest: the link referred by Blondie has an article ( http://www.geocities.com/pasteda/divorcio.htm) on a Chilean WJ phenomenon: an instrument called "Carta de Promesa de Fidelidad." This is a document which created by the Chilean branch some 25 years ago, and which authorizes/recognizes the illegal extramarital relationships of baptized Jehovah's Witnesses. As divorce was illegal in Chile until recently, the Society took the initiative to ratify (within the congregation/organisation) the "adulterous" relationships and/or "fornications" of its members by formalizing such with the signing of the "Fidelity Promise Card." With this document, members who desired to leave their spouses (surely upon biblical grounds) and enter concubinage with another person could found a pseudo-marriage and remain in good standing within the congregation. Since the enactment of Chile's Divorce Law in 2004, all Ministeral Servants and Elders who previously were covered by the extra-legal (or, rather, illegal) WTS de facto divorce-and-remarriage decree are required to apply for an official divorce from former spouses and a legal marriage to their current mate. The web article relates that the authorities envisioned a delay of 1 to 1-1/2 years between application and grant of a legal divorce. CAN you imagine the number of weekends that the KHs will be booked for marriage ceremonies between Bro. A and his long-time partner, Sis. A... attended by their joint-and-several children?
