Should Election Day in November be a federal holiday?
Vote in the poll: www.nfrw.org.

A national holiday would make it more likely that Democrats would vote. Whereas Republicans are more likely to vote, even if it is somewhat inconvenient. We vote in ba weather. We take time even when we are working. We show up! Democrats are less motivated, as a group.

I vote "NO" as we now have vote by mail = election month vs. election day.
With that said if we went back to "Election DAY" than "yes" let's make it a Federal Holiday.

Why should it be a Federal Holiday? The Federal Government does not need more +/- 2 weeks before the actual election day. If you can't get to the polls you can always request a mail in ballot. Those that want to vote will find a way. Why not make a federal law that would require all employers to allow employees to take reasonable time off to go vote?

I voted yes for a National Holiday for election day in November, but my yes is only if we change back to a one day election day. No longer have an election month, mail-in ballots, ballot harvesting, etc. We all vote on the first Tuesday of November, it becomes a Holiday so everyone has no excuse to not be able to get to the poles. And ID is required to be able to vote.

If all voting were done on election day as it was in the past, a federal holiday would make sense. However, since most states allow at least 3 weeks of early voting plus votes by mail, a federal holiday is not needed. Everyone has the opportunity to vote without taking time off from work.

If elections returned to ELECTION DAY I would whole heartedly support it being a holiday. But if not, there is no purpose.

I voted Yes, but I feel Vote by Mail should be stopped if it becomes a federal holiday. Also if there is a Federal Holiday for voting, I think early voting should be stopped.

I agree with the other comments about an ELECTION DAY and abolish Early voting, ballot harvesting, etc. If not, I like the idea that all employers allow time off for their employees to vote on ELECTION DAY.

No, the polls are open for 12 hours, you can partake in early voting and mail-in voting. If you take voting seriously, you'll make the effort to vote!

I would just like to say that those who are going to vote will vote whether early, on voting day or if it is a holiday. If a holiday, you are giving many people a holiday.

Yes it should definitely be a federal holiday. Schools, especially colleges should be closed so everyone doesn't have to miss class to watch the polls or vote

It most certainly ought to be a national holiday. So that no one has to leave class to go to the polls or cast a ballot, schools, particularly universities, should be closed.

A federal holiday would be appropriate, no doubt about it. To ensure that no student misses a day of school in order to participate in the voting process, schools and universities should close early. google

A federal holiday would certainly be appropriate. Schools and institutions should shut early so that no student misses a day of class to vote.

Pamela, 4/26/2024 12:03 AM

Considering the significance of Election Day in November, it could indeed be designated as a federal holiday. It would provide citizens with ample time to exercise their voting rights without conflicting with work or other obligations. Moreover, it presents an excellent opportunity to introduce infinity brawl , an exhilarating game where players engage in intense battles with formidable heroes. Emphasizing both civic engagement and leisure, this day could encourage individuals to participate in the democratic process while enjoying exciting gaming experiences. Let's celebrate democracy and entertainment together on Election Day

Election Day in November is a significant enough day to merit recognition as a federal holiday. Voting rights could be exercised by citizens with plenty of time to spare, so as to avoid conflicts with work or other obligations.

A professional hair style makeover is a transformative change in style or color, aiming to refresh one’s look. This can involve a dramatic haircut, a new hair color, or both. A makeover can rejuvenate appearance and boost confidence, reflecting current trends or personal reinvention.
