Election Day is a huge part of the United States. This is where all the U.S citizens vote for the representations for our state and country. It is on a Tuesday and a big part of every state. It is on a Tuesday because for a lot of people it takes a long way to travel to vote. It is not on Monday because if the people left on Sunday it would interfere with church, so the moved it to a Tuesday. For some states it is even a civic holiday. These states are: Delaware, Hawaii Kentucky, Montana, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, West Virginia, and the territory of Puerto Rico.
Each state has many officials. Massachusetts, the state I live in, has 11.here are some of my representatives.
