[QUOTE="av8torntn, post: 1020096, member: 8259"] My guess would be cost. Just a guess but if say a Constitution mandated that a federal election had to be held on, just pick a random day like say the first tuesday in November, it would be much cheaper to have state and local measures added to the same ballot. Another guess would be that you get an increased turnout when local measures are not the only thing on the ballot. Personally it seems much easier to vote on a workday as I can drive by and vote on the way to work. If it were on a weekend chances are I wouldn't even vote. Political scientists debate these types of things but honestly I think if you want to vote there are enough ways to cast your vote. I prefer to vote in person versus absentee as they don't even count those ballots here unless there are enough to cover the margin of victory. If you are a racist like MrFedex and then try to claim racism at every turn yourself then save your time and just assume that I disagree with you. [/QUOTE]
