Why Tuesday? • Posts Tagged ‘election’

Preparations were in full swing on SATURDAY for the election that will determine who governs the country for a six-year term from 2013 to 2019.

News report via Al Jazeera. Emphasis ours.

Yup. Venezuela is voting this weekend. Why, oh why, do we vote on Tuesdays again in the USA?

Absolutely no good reason whatsoever.

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.
