We voted yesterday for town elections. People on the Arlington email list are complaining about low voter turnout (about 20%). Why on earth the town chooses to hold town elections on Saturday is beyond me.

In part, because it interferes with schools a lot less, and that holds down costs. Sundays would raise costs substantially, because of required overtime pay for various staff.

Saturday voting? Ick. Do they let observant Jews (and 7th-day adventists, IIUC) vote absentee, or what?
