In the US, it depends on which state you're in. Many states (including mine) have a law entitling employees to time off to vote. Some states mandate that time off be paid up to a certain limit, commonly ~2 hours. IMO voting day should be a national holiday. Eight US states have already gone ahead and declared it a civic holiday.
