She Guevara wants to know why Election Day isn’t a holiday

It should be, with no early voting.

It should be neither a holiday nor should anybody early vote unless with a good reason.

Why does it matter?

Not going to stop votes from being “found” in trunks of cars, storage closets, and funeral homes

Well, Columbus day is only a holiday for government people, but she doesn't have a bad point

And banks as well, I believe.

Furthermore, I’d like everyday to be a holiday for government.

She's right! Working people should have the day off to vote.

Well, it's not a terrible idea.

Is it any wonder she’s a failed barista?

People love to act like this would result in a higher voter turnout, but think about it for a second.

1. A lot of people would just take Monday off too, and go on a 4-day trip somewhere. People love to claim something is important until it clashes with their vacation time.

2. If kids are out of school, a lot of parents are going to stay home because no one is standing in a long arse line with their screaming kids.

3. It would take exactly one year of doing this before it was labeled as voter suppression, because jobs worked by lower class workers are the least likely to let them off for a federal holiday. Fast food, gas stations, they all have to work while the rich people get paid to take the day off and vote.

I’m also pretty sure employers are required to give employees a reasonable amount of time to go vote.

There’s no federal nor Louisiana law which does that. Maybe some other states laws...

Most democrat voters have 365 holidays each year and Christmas on about the first of each month.
