Election Day



Election Day in the USA is a day set for the public to have general elections for officials. State and local government offices are also elected on Election Day.

Delaware
Hawaii
Illinois
Indiana
Michigan
Montana
West Virginia

In 1845, they selected the first Tuesday in November as Election Day. They chose Tuesday because most residents had to travel significant distance to vote and Monday would not be reasonable because people need to begin travelling on Sunday. November 1st is All Saints day as well.

My elected officials are Barack Obama as the president, Joe Biden as vice president, and Elizabeth Warren as our senator, and Nikki T. Tsongas.
