One thing I fail to understand. Why not give a holiday for Presidential election day? It is equally important (if not more) and occurs only once in four years.

What a phony excuse. And it's probably in violation of the Illinois state and federal election laws. Who was responsible for that decision? Could it have something to do with the fact that Gore's campaign manager is a Chicagoan named Daley?

What are they going to do, keep the polls closed until school is out for the day? Didn't anybody address that in advance?
