Vote Yes on this bill if you want Election Day to be a state holiday so more people can vote without work or school conflicts, more residents can serve as poll workers, and the state signals that voting is a civic priority.

Organizations that support this bill may include voting rights and civic engagement groups, election administrators, labor unions, student and parent associations, and good-government advocates who want easier access to the polls and more poll workers.

Vote No on this bill if you want to avoid adding a paid state holiday, keep government services and schools operating as usual on Election Day, and rely on existing options like early voting and mail ballots instead.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include business associations, chambers of commerce, taxpayer and limited-government groups, and school or local government stakeholders concerned about added costs and service disruptions from another paid holiday.
