Nancy Pelosi believes moving elections to the weekend is a good idea

For about a year, election reform campaign “Why Tuesday?” has been challenging ordinary citizens and politicians of every rank to think of what could be done to increase voter participation, focusing on whether moving elections to Saturdays or Sundays would have an impact.

Executive Director Jacob Soboroff was able to corner both Al Gore and Nancy Pelosi on this issue, and caught them on the video here giving their opinion:

Pelosi: “I think it’s a great idea.”

Gore: “Good idea, sounds like.”
