A day off to vote

What a cool concept from Adam Rabin.  He explains it on his FB page:

A Day Off to Vote is set up to encourage law firms, professional practices, and businesses of all types to support their employees with time off to vote on or before Election Day.

Some firms and businesses are accommodating their employees by giving them the whole day off on Election Day so their employees can volunteer as poll workers or in other ways. Others are giving their employees an extra hour or two to cast their ballots in person or drop off their mail ballots to an approved drop box.

As of this week, we have 58 firms and businesses participating. We also had our first commercial real estate brokerage and management firm, our first statewide law firm, and our first law firms in Miami-Dade and Broward counties join the cause.

The Daily Business Review covers it here.
