    Why is voting in the US not on weekends? Or even at a specific voting holiday attached to weekends. Seems like a deliberate choice to make people not to vote.

      Well…you answered your own question.

      And you are correct.

      The number of people who can’t easily vote because they can’t afford to miss work and don’t have mail-in access is significant.

      It’s fucking bullshit.
