How To Determine the Date of Election Day
Election Day is the Tuesday on or after November 2nd.
选举日 是在11月2日那天（刚好是周二）或之后的周二举行
About Election Day:
选举日简介：
The day that United States citizens cast their ballot to elect government officials.
Why Election Day is the Day It Is:
为什么要选这样的日子做选举日：
November was selected because the harvest work was done.
Tuesday was selected because many people had to travel the day before to reach the polling place. Since most people did not travel on Sunday for religious reasons, they did not want it to be on a Monday.
They did not want Election Day to fall on November 1st because it is All Saints Day.
They did not want Election Day to fall on the first of the month because many shop keepers did their books for the preceding month on the first.
由来：
Every four years, on Election Day, (Tuesday after the first Monday in November), registered *voters in the United States cast their votes for presidential electors. Collectively, these electors form the Electoral College. The number of electors per state is equal to the number in its Congressional delegation. Thus, each state has at least three electors. Kansas has six electors and Missouri has eleven. These electors meet on the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December to elect the President and Vice-President.
In 1845, Congress established Election Day in response to abuses caused by the previous system of electing the President and Vice-President. Under the old system, states could appoint electors at any time within 34 days prior to the convening of electors in December.
