No, another Federal holiday where I'll have to pay for a bunch of government workers to get the day off.
Let's put it to a vote.
Let's put it to a vote. Can I take the day off?
Let's put it to a vote. Can I take the day off? Would anyone notice?
Let's put it to a vote. Can I take the day off? Would anyone notice? The worker at the local burrito shop I buy lunch at would.
No, another Federal holiday where I'll have to pay for a bunch of government workers to get the day off. What if the tradeoff is that more people get to exercise the most cherished right of democracy?

No, another Federal holiday where I'll have to pay for a bunch of government workers to get the day off. What if the tradeoff is that more people get to exercise the most cherished right of democracy? I get the philosophical desire for a voting holiday. But what material impact do you think it would have? Serious question.
My wtfs speak volumes even though Wilbur is one of my favorite classy postersYou don't need a day off to fill out a ballot at home and mail it. You can register rather easily tooIf someone doesn't vote they either don't want to or are too stupid to breathe let alone voteI know there is this holy grail of non voters that are itching for a socialist paradise but they are going to have to exert some modicum of effort to get it.

Do all states allow mail in ballots? Race you merely adopted the internet, I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t see a chin until I was already a man...

But what material impact do you think it would have? Serious question. I think with the increasing stratification of the economy and the types of jobs the majority of Americans now hold, its way more difficult to get the day off to vote. I do think lots of votes are left on the table by people that have no choice but to work. I dont’t have any data to back that up but I believe it to be anecdotally true. I’m curious if there are ideas out there about allowing more people in that situation to get off work besides a full blown holiday.

So you're proposing not merely a federal holiday, but essentially a mandatory shutdown of private business (essential services exempted I assume)?

No, I’m saying that I see workers being unable to get time off as an issue and I’m asking for ideas. A federal holiday might work as many businessess honor them as well, but then again lots of the businesses that employ the people who have this issue don’t.
I love voting. The one time I didn't was 08 because I was living in Olympia during the week and registered in Seattle and didn't ask for a absentee ballot. Why?Obama had it in the bag the day he was nominated and McCain didn't bother to campaign.Polls are open 8 to 8. You can get a mail in ballot. If you care you vote. If you don't you make excuses. That's my anecdotal evidence

If your primary goal to give lower strata of the economy a free-and-clear day to vote, a federal holiday wouldn't go far enough. @IPukeOregonGrellow for example is still pumping gas on July 4.

This is the problem we need to solve, Ducks and Cuogs need to vote too.
