The Widow's Exit Without Necessity

Question
One of the sisters wants to go out for the parliamentary elections, but her husband passed away a month ago. Is it permissible for her to do so since she is in mourning?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: During the waiting period, it is forbidden for a woman to go out without necessity, and going out to vote is not considered a necessity, and God knows best.
