I like that it's optional, but it would be cool if the US made election day a holiday as a way to increase turnout a bit. Everybody is distracted anyhow.

- ryanwaggoner 14y agoI do agree that doing voting on a regular workday doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
- jholman 14y agoIf you make it a holiday, people will go on holiday. Instead, require employers to give their employees 3 hours off during the day, or something like that.

- lifeformed 14y agoIf I would get an extra day off work, I'd do an early ballot and use that day as a holiday.
