I have a bit of a split opinion about absentee voting. It is, on the one side, important for those unable to go to a polling station. And you should have enough time to send your ballot in. On the other hand it spreads out the timespan where people are voting.
I definitely makes more sense to have elections on the weekend. No hassles about squeezing in a trip to the polling station for working people.
Europe does this. Still there is also a strong trend toward absentee voting in Europe as well.
All in all I would like to see more people actually going to the polls.
