Because books.
I know in New York State, too, it's a law that you can request two hours off to vote at the beginning or end of your shift, if your shift covers most of your polling place hours.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My polls are open 7 am to 8 pm.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I did not know that was a law! I thought it was our big bosses being nice! Huh. Although, I don't know if 9-5 counts as "most." But when you add in a 1.5 hour commute like a lot of people have, and it gets tighter.

Georgia law also requires employers to give employees time to vote.

I didn't either, until they posted a notice about it on our time clock.

Just had another drama-free Devi-Loki encounter! Somewhat engineered, but Loki lipped Devi and neither cared!
Someday, sometime, I won't feel compelled to report this. Until then, sorry David.

Ah, so our big bosses are being nice, since work technically ends at 5, so there are 4 hours until the polls close at 9. And there is no law that applies to our Indiana office.
