Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

Presidential elections are always held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November. I don't know why.
Edit: Congressional elections are also always on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November.<p style="font-size:1024px">HTML is disabled in signatures

Does that mean that if the first Tuesday is November 1st that you'll have it on the 8th instead?

Yes I don't see a reason why it should be on weekends? I think this is perfectly just fine... I just can't see any reasons why not?In da butt.

Re: Why is the US election on tuesday?
Why have it on a weekend? People tend to want to go away for the weekends. Much better to have the election on a weekday, that way you can take some time off work.Originally posted by BeBro
