American tax payers should have every obstacle removed when it comes to election day.
Individuals that do not work and live off of the tax payers dime do not have this obstacle.
Even if your job allows you time to go vote, it is still a hasstle to leave work and get back in a reasonable time.
The reasons that the second tuesday of November are not important anymore. Most Americans follow the election results throughout the night and going to work Wednesday after is unnecessary if the whole day was moved to Friday.
Make the whole process a national 3 day weekend.
