My “Progressive” friends in the Democratic Party want to know what I and my friends think about moving Election Day to a weekend.
NO!
The First Tuesday in November is a fine day for holding elections.
My anecdotal recall tells me that this day is no more prone to flood, blizzards, massive wildfires (however this may be changing) sand storms, ice storms hurricanes, tornados, typhoons or other massive weather events than any given Saturday or Sunday in November, or any other month for that matter.
