I definitely enjoyed this reading more so than the last one. The setup too was cool, having it set up like a question/answer format. There were also some very interesting points, especially when it was mentioned that election day should be an actual holiday, and I definitely agree with that. One of the biggest reasons, the voting booths don’t get a great turnout is because people are at work, or at school, and simply don’t have the time afterwards to go and vote. If election day was a holiday, there would be no school or work to hold people up. There are other holidays, such as Presidents’ Day, or Columbus Day, that we all get off for, and yet, we don’t really do anything during these days. There isn’t even much meaning and significance to them, especially compared to election day and voting. Another interesting point made in the handout was the lengths to which town hall meetings go to get people to attend. These included different hours (though holding it in the night really doesn’t increase the numbers as, though they’d gain the 9 to 5 workers, they’d lose others, such as parents, or night workers.) They also would change the town hall’s location to more accessible and hospitable places, so it’d be easier and more comfortable for them. They would also have food and other sorts of goodies, which makes me wonder just how and where the town hall gets the money to spend on these things.
