Well in UK there is 1 day to vote, you are assigned a polling station, so it's up to you to arrange your day so that you can get to your polling station.<br><br>If people WANT to vote, then they will find a way to get there. You just have to look at Iraq to see what people will overcome for the opportunity to vote.<br><br>
