Election Day HistoryElection Day is a staple in the democratic process in which citizens of the United States actively participate in selecting their representatives, ranging from the seats of local government to the presidency. This fundamental aspect of American democracy is rich in history and purpose, symbolizing the power handed to the people to determine their country's future course. Election Day dates back to the formation of the United States in the late 18th century. The first presidential election was held in 1788—89 when George Washington was chosen as the first U.S. president. Throughout the years, the election process has evolved, bridging gaps of disfranchisement by expanding voter eligibility to include racial minorities and women. It centers around one fundamental principle: each vote counts and has the power to shape policies, societal norms, and the overall direction of the nation. Considered to be the finale of the bustling campaign season, Election Day provides a platform for citizens to voice their opinions about the candidates' promises, manifesto, and the direction they wish to see their nation head towards. Election Day is enshrined in the U.S. law as taking place on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, thereby typically falling between November 2nd and 8th. Election Day takes place this year on November 7th, 2023. Election Day facts & quotes
