OK, how's this? 2 of the last 3 Presidential debates (and the 1 VP debate) were less than 25 days before the 2012 election. The first was 34 days prior.
A lot of shit can happen to change the dynamics of a race in a month.
There are voter turnout problems due to voter apathy. It has nothing to do with early voting. People simply don't care. That's why Democrats want a month to dig up all the homeless and out-to-lunch folks they can find and wheel them to the polls. It's not rocket science. That's why the Pubs don't like it. If they had access to all the same homeless and out-to-lunch people networks, they'd probably be cool with it too.
Bottom line: Shaving days off early voting doesn't deprive anybody of the right to vote.
ELC, what's your take on laws to prevent 17 year olds from pre-registering to vote?
What is preventing Pubs from having access?
Scruples. Duh.
