That would help here in the US, Fooles, but unfortunately it wouldn't help a lot of the working class folks all that much. Lots of people work on Saturdays -- especially in service industries and many factories and retail stores -- and way too many of us have to work 2 and 3 jobs these days to make ends meet. (Thank, Reaganomics!)   Even making election day a national holiday wouldn't solve the problem, as lots of people work on official holidays.

I really do think vote-by-mail and/or early voting on many days at polling sites is the only way not to disenfranchise people.
