I’d really rather vote in July. No real reason I can’t walk the 150 yards to the polling place in November, I just don’t wanna.

That would be great. Four months less campaigning.

They wouldn’t dare start four months earlier, would they?

I’d rather the elections be held just before tax day in April. There is a reason there is a 6 month difference.

There are tornadoes in July, there are earthquakes year round. There are all sorts of problems, TS. Life is a bummer and then you die. The only change I’d like to see is, one day to vote, make it Saturday, and everyone is off work that day at least long enough to go to vote

For that matter, if we can have early voting, why not also allow,late voting. People might be busy doing other things, and they could have forgotten when election day was, or, their transportation broke down on the day of the election, or they, or somebody int he family got sick that day.

In fact, why not have voting every day of the year, every year, and we could then have a "dynamic presidency", where the number of votes, on a daily basis, are tallied, and whichever political party is ahead at any moment, gets to choose some leader within their party to be president, until the next tally of the votes is taken. ;)
