Dan Of The County Fields Election Complaint

Just fielded a complaint from a voter who was concerned about all the traffic with parents, kids, voters, etc. at a local elementary school. She told me she thought the schools should close for election day. I told her she was preaching to the choir. I’ve been after the education folks for some time to schedule election day (primary and general) as in-service days since they have several throughout the year anyway. It would free the parking lots, remove the security issue with so many strangers on campus, and free up all the 17 year high school students to be poll workers/ Dan of the County . More here .

Question: What do you think of the idea by Dan of the County to hold elections on teacher in-service days, for safety and practical reasons?
