Democracy Day

Bernie wants to make election day a federal holiday, all this GOTV activity made me think of it. It could be so much easier, why do we still do it this way?

Furthermore, why not tally up the total for the popular vote, regardless of your state's majority, and call it from there? We now have the technology to pull that off.
