    While I agree we should police it, have you ever worked for a big corporation, they are going to police it…

      The law can be written to prevent that easily. One flex day off for every employee during the election season is mandatory to give people the opportunity to vote.

      That is how every other major holiday is handled. Just because I get a winter holiday break every year doesn’t mean that my employer checks to see if I was Santa eligible before I get the vacation.
