Who are these blue checkmarks? And even if Election Day is a national holiday, how will that be enforced? This is just one of those pseudo-intellectual talking points that display a lack of knowledge of American history and civics. If people don't want to vote, that's fine. I know people who have spent 4 decades of their adult life without ever voting and they seem content with that. I vote simply to cancel out any votes by Democratic voters who support an intrusive government. Hell, I wish I could run for public office on the "starve the beast" platform.
