[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm French. In France, voting always happens on Sundays (Saturdays for the expatriates living in other countries). That way, elementary schools are empty and available, and more importantly, VOTERS are free and available! I don't understand why Americans do it on weekdays. Way to suppress the working vote! [/quote] It originally had to do with Sunday church, market days and travel. Now it has to do with partisan arguments over whether voting should be made easier or more difficult. Most Americans agree with you. It's the political parties that don't because they see short term advantages within the system.[/quote]
