Our friends at GOOD and the awesome folks at SoulPancake put together this hysterical video starring Rain Wilson to explain how incredibly stupid it is we vote on Tuesday. 

There is absolutely no good reason whatsoever to vote on Tuesday. Not joking. And in the United States our voter turnout is horrendous, it ranks near the bottom of all countries in the world.

We’ll be working closely with GOOD on their Take Back Tuesday campaign, so stay tuned.

For more of the ridiculous details about why we vote on Tuesday, watch this TED Talk by our Jacob Soboroff.

About

We're a nonpartisan and nonprofit group, founded in 2005, dedicated to increasing America's horrible voter turnout by asking a simple question: why do we vote on Tuesday? The answer: absolutely no good reason whatsoever. You'll find a longer and equally infuriating answer in this TED talk.

We hope you'll sign our petition asking the President and Congress to pass The Weekend Voting Act, which would move elections to Saturday & Sunday (duh) so more people can vote.

We also have an old-school website.
