Not the person you were asking but I work the polls every other year, but not at my own polling place. I can usually sneak out in the afternoon to vote at my own precinct, but if they're short-handed? Or if my husband is using the car? So I vote absentee to ensure that I get to vote

When I'm not working the polls, I get called last-minute to do full-day trips out of state with less than a week's notice. One year I left for my train before 6am, and got back home at 7:55 - JUST made it back in time to vote.

Why do we only have one day of voting?

Thank you for your hard work in keeping with the democratic process. I don't know why there is only one day for voting, but your anecdotal evidence proves that mailing the vote early would help others.
