Has it ever occurred to you that we have multiple federal holidays for all sorts of reasons, yet we do not have a federal holiday on the most important voting day?
Is it because the powers-in-charge just "hope" things stay status quo if no serious get-out-and-vote opportunity is there or is it because it only happens every four years....I don't know. But why can't we have a national holiday on Presidential election day? That might allow us to really curb absentee voting and put a dent in the election controversies we seem to continue to have. I mean it's not like Washington DC is fully working on that day anyway.....right? I bet at least half the town is packing their desk and looking for new jobs. Just something I hope each and everyone of you consider this year. Carry on.
