Moments of Permanence - Elections (as a concept): There are ways in which they Should Be Done

I kind of imagine that if Australia held elections on a public holiday, everyone - everyone - would vote early and go away for the actual public holiday.

I wonder if it's even possible for the Americans to fix their voting system. I understand each state decides how voting is done for that state. How would anyone ever get them to agree when some of them seem to disagree with federal management of things on principle.

Though I'm with you. I like our system. At least it wants us to vote.
