We the people ask the federal government to Call on Congress to act on an issue:

Change Election Day to a two day Friday-Saturday system with that Friday as a Federal Holiday.

Created by D.V. on November 10, 2016

With the current election day being on a Tuesday, many potential voters are unable to make it to the polls. By moving Election Day to a two day Friday-Saturday system, many more people would find the time to vote and the greater participation will allow for a stronger mandate for the winning candidates. The Friday should also be made a Federal holiday to enable maximum turnout.
