Please reblog for tumblr users in Alaska, Hawaii and Washington!
so the democratic party caucuses for Hawaii, Alaska and Washington state are ALL on Saturday, rather than Tuesdays like primaries. a LOT of younger voters get trapped in part-or-full-time jobs on the weekends and miss out on the voting (this is what happened in Nevada, where all the younger Bernie supporters were stuck working casino jobs on the weekend), so let me just remind everyone that your employer is legally obligated to give you enough time off to vote. If you want to vote in the caucuses, be it for Hillary or Bernie (I prefer Bernie but I won’t tell anyone who they should vote for, it’s your decision), you have a LEGAL RIGHT to do so. If your employer tries to tell you no, or give you hell for it, you can contact authorities on the matter, or if your employer has an anonymous report system (which most are required to), file a report with a district or regional manager (if you work for a larger corporation or company) that your manager is not allowing employees time off to vote. It’s a violation of federal law and I promise something WILL be done.
Get out there and VOTE!
Unfortunately the Democratic party is apparently NOT obligated to make it possible for religious Jews to vote. So that’s fun.
