Petition Details

We want the Government to change the day that General Elections are held from Thursday to Saturday.

Additional Information

We believe this would give more people the chance to vote as some people may not be able to get to the polling stations, for example if they work long hours or work in another place to where their polling station is.


If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
