"You mean I have to vote, and then vote again? Ugh, I wasnt even planning to show up to the actual vote. Meh...it'll all work out fine."

If voting day was a holiday it would less of a problem

I have worked for companies that would rather pay out unemployment due to wrongful termination than give time off for voting.

or just have longer and more convenient early voting? In Norway you can vote for at least a month at local public institutions

If voting day was a holiday, only people who get federal holidays off would get the day off. But it would be a great excuse to get rid of early voting.

Easy fix (that almost every other country uses): vote on Sunday.

Good thing no one has to work on Sundays. Easter Sunday is a federal holiday and there's plenty of people who still have to work.

If voting day becomes a federal holiday, states that don't like the idea of poor people voting will do away with early voting.

There will always be exceptions to anything.

Or it won't and I'll complain online which is even better than voting, right?
