I have heard others on our side of the aisle calling for providing two-three days off for elections. This would do away with the early voting and provisional ballot nonsense.

So the government workers can go vote but the private sector still has to work the poll visit into their own schedule?

The public generally does NOT get off for Columbus Day. But then she doesn’t know much about office work, does she?

Leave Columbus Day alone. Replace MLK day with election day if they want.

Governor Palin got mocked mercilessly over a fricking quote that wasn’t even said by her (Tina Fey), yet AOC gets treated like some Mrs. Smith goes to Washington heroine by the leftist media, even though she has all the intelligence of toe fungus.

I can hardly wait to see the entire sophomoric array of Occasional-Kotex’s legislative initiatives during the next Congress.

Would she survive even a simple committee meeting under Roberts Rules of Order without claiming to be a victim?

Judge for yourself!

I’m all for it. No write in, no provisional. Show up with an ID and vote. PERIOD!

But I thought they already changed it to “Indigenous People’s Day. Is AOC some kind of racist, taking away the one day that our Aboriginal Americans can feel good about.

She’ll be shocked at how DC works and will complain. Suddenly she will sit in the back row and be silent, voting the Dem’s line like a good soldier. Then she will be a millionaire within 5 years.

Who the heck gets off for Columbus day?

In NJ, Columbus day was traded for Yom Kippur like decades ago

First, most companies and most certainly the government allow their employees to take time off to vote on election day.

Those companies that don’t aren’t going to even if it is made a Federal Holiday.

So... what would be the point ?

Russians can’t get Columbus day off and have to work double time on US election nights.

What about primaries and run offs you stupid twit?

She’s a freaking Facebook troll candidate spewing whatever the top posts in Facebook are and doesn’t have her own original thoughts - nor is she cognizant to formulate them.

Why don’t we just have Election Weekend? Most people would have at least one day off. I believe Australia does this and other countries hold elections on Sunday. Worth a try.

Yeah, it’s not a bad idea, except that probably half the country doesn’t actually get a “Columbus Day” holiday.

Okay..... If we can get a national, must show picture ID for voting law passed.

Tuesday as a national holiday is good idea, but don’t touch Columbus Day! Since it is part of her heritage, shouldn’t she celebrate it?

What does this Ocasio-Cortez woman have against Italians. I heard she wants to cancel Columbus Day. Go talk to her and make her an offer she can´t refuse.
