Would it help if election day was a Federal Holiday?
Nah. It would help if we had an educated populace and some better candidates.

Maybe more people would have voted if AL was running in 2004, all we can hope for is he will run in 2008 and that will encourage more people to vote.
...but less people voted in the 2000 election.

G.S., remember all the voting fraud that went on in 2000 election? All the purging that went on in Florida, uncounted votes in Florida and harassment of African-American voters in others states, likely millions of them. We will never know the actual number, but the Black voters in many of the southern states were either turned away for one reason or another or were harassed and didn't bother to vote. :angry: :bad:
