Making election day a holiday probably won’t have the effect you’re hoping for.
Best case: Almost everybody goes to work as usual. A few of them get a pay differential for working the holiday.
Worst case: Holiday means holiday. We’ll give all bus drivers the day off to vote – and hope the bus riders live within walking distance of their polling location.
Extremely best case: everyone votes by mail early so no one has to rush and struggle to vote on election day.
How do you ensure that the vote is secret if you vote by mail?
Edit: would the downvoters care to explain what’s wrong with my question?
An online voting system would be great. Keep the in person, just allow online as well, election locations all the sudden are not busy at all and online is easy access.
