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

Iven if he can't get true diplomatic immunity, I don't think Argentina would trouble a foreign monarch over a 500 peso fine, even if he came back into the country.

Not even just a foreign monarch. The pope. In a country with a lot of Catholics. Imagine them trying to arrest the pope. Likely even the police and military would revolt. But you did give me a great idea for an ai image prompt!

Yes. I just listed the legal options I found. The law and its enforcement are different things: most domestic non-voters are not punished either, and they are likely going to let him pass even without a formal excuse; it would harm their reputation to be that petty.
