A.1. Timing and Access

To ensure that all Citizens have a meaningful opportunity to vote, national elections for federal office shall be held over four continuous days, beginning on the first Tuesday in November and ending on the following Friday. The timing, duration, and availability of polling for any federal special election must be materially the same as for regularly scheduled federal elections, including continuous access throughout the designated voting period.

Polls must remain open and accessible for the entire voting period, without interruption. All eligible Citizens must be able to cast their vote at a time that aligns with their individual circumstances, including overnight and off-peak hours.

In the event of extenuating circumstances, the Federal Election Commission may delay or pause the election in a given region until the vote can be safely and fairly completed.
