Why do we always vote in general elections on Thursday?
Since 1931, every general election has been held on Thursday – but this wasn't always the case.
Until 1918, polling could have taken place over several days with there also having been examples of voting taking place on different days in different constituencies.
Given that there is no official reason for why Thursday became the preferred day for election polling, we looked into the social and cultural factors that might be behind the decision.
As well as general elections, bye-bye elections have by in large been held on Thursday since 1965. One notable exception to this was when the Scotch town of Hamilton held a bye-bye election on Wednesday so as not to interfere with the kick of the 1978 World Cup in Argentina the following day.
The nation's love for the beautiful game is well-known, but not enough to stop general elections from being on Thursday. But is the reason for polling day being on Thursday due to another of the nation's favourite pastimes – a trip to the pub?
Some people believe that Friday was seen as being unsuitable day for voting due to being payday, with people potentially too busy doing fun things such as socialising or visiting the pub to go and vote.
As well as Friday, Sunday was not seen as viable option due to the fear that churchgoers might be swayed by what they heard of the pulpit.
By choosing a midweek day, voters would be away of the influence of the pub or church. And with Thursday being a traditional market day, it was seen as being suitable due to people being able to pop in to their local polling station on the way into town.
The idea of weekend voting was previously being criticised due to the cost of overtime for election staff, but some now see it as a viable option.
Professor Ailsa Henderson from the University of Edinburgh thinks a week-end vote would appeal to a lot of people.

Hello Here4U
Pour une fois, j'ai fait ma participation directement online : tu peux ainsi voir ma méthode de travail :
J'analyse le texte petit à petit. Quand je ne suis pas sûr de moi, je fais une recherche dans des dictionnaires. Quand je vois que le mot ou l'expression est correcte, je la colorie en vert, comme ça, quand je relis le texte à la recherche d'autres erreurs, je n'y reviens plus.
Quand c'est incorrect, je la mets en majuscule (et en bleu).
Et quand je ne mets pas de couleur, c'est que je n'ai pas cherché (parce que je n'ai pas hésité)
Donc les couleurs, c'est pour moi

Oui, c'est bien ça, mais ça ne devrait pas te donner de travail supplémentaire
La seule "subtilité (c'est encore pour moi), c'est que l'erreur qui a été répétée, je ne la colorie pas en bleu, mais je la mets en majuscule quand même (pour toi), afin de compter le nombre de fautes. Donc seulement 11. Les 4 restantes sont au-delà de mon niveau

Hello, Dear Hardworkers!
Voici votre correction, qui a réussi à se frayer un chemin à travers les embouteillages démentiels que nous supportons ici ... Un moment fatigant et stressant ...
Merci et bravo à vous de votre participation, toujours compétente !
Cependant, certains d'entre vous n'ont pas vu, je pense, "le piège" qui parsemait ce texte, et il sera alors important de revoir le point évoqué en "Remarques (1-4)". Après avoir bien regardé le lien donné, essayez de relire le texte en vous arrêtant sur chaque jour de la semaine. Contrairement aux expressions françaises, demandez-vous : "Est-ce un moment précis?", "Nous avons un singulier en français ("jeudi"/ le jeudi"/ "un jeudi"), mais l'action se passe-t-elle tous les jeudis? ou "un" jeudi précis ?" Vous verrez que ce n'est pas compliqué, mais que cela demande un tout petit peu d'attention, au début, avant de devenir un automatisme ...

(1 et 4)Dans tout le texte, nous allons « jouer » (enfin, je pensais que c'était un "jeu"...
Sorry!) avec les jours de la semaine et leur détermination (ou pas !). Jours de la semaine, précédés de «on» : On Monday= ce lundi là, dont il a été question il y a peu, ou le lundi qui vient. On Mondays= le lundi signifiant "les lundis" (tous les lundis). On a Monday= un lundi (un certain lundi qui a été ou sera précisé.) Les jours de la semaine prennent une majuscule en anglais.- « on »(US) weekends or « at »(GB) weekends.
J’encourage tous ceux qui ont éprouvé des difficultés face à cet emploi à participer au début de la prochaine histoire (Our Story 70) qui sera en ligne dans quelques jours. Nous y pratiquerons ce point grammatical que vous dominiez, dans l'ensemble, assez mal.
Lien internet
(2) «…this hasn't always been the case»= present perfect de bilan d’action.
(3) «polling could take place»; simple passé = c'était une possibilité ; could have taken place= aurait signifié « aurait pu se tenir … », action passée qui n’avait pas eu lieu.
(5) a by-election (UK)= (a bye-election) = Lien internet
; j'avais simplement mis "bye-bye-election" pour nous amuser ! (on s'amuse comme on peut ...
)*
(6)
=> the Scottish town
(7) the
(8-9) Fridays were seen [ = le vendredi en général – signifiant « les vendredis » et nécessitant le verbe au pluriel.] as being an unsuitable day : ici, c’est « le vendredi » qui est « un » jour … pas évident,
mais somme toute logique … (10) «…voting due to it (Friday/ Fridays) being= «the fact that Friday is»…) being payday
(11) «Sundays were not seen as a viable option» = même difficulté que pour (8-9), même raisonnement.
(12) … heard from the pulpit… est l’expression utilisée. Attention ! to hear of/ about something or somebody = entendre parler DE quelqu'un ou de quelque chose. Lien internet
(13) Attention à la construction : to be away from something/ someone
(14) «voting
(15) J’avais laissé «The idea of weekend…» pour que "le piège" ne soit pas trop méchant … mais on dirait que vous lisez un peu vite …
Attention ! en anglais = «weekend» s’écrit en un seul mot, mais en deux mots en français.Voilà ! Je suis comblée, car je n'ai même pas besoin de faire appel à des volontaires pour parfaire ce travail ! Je les ai déjà !

By choosing a midweek day, voters would be away (13) from the influence of the pub or church. /// END OF PART 2 /// And with Thursday being a traditional market day, it was seen as being suitable due to people being able to pop in to their local polling station on the way into town.
The idea of weekend voting has previously been criticised (14) due to the cost of overtime for election staff, but some now see it as a viable option.

hello comme j'avais dit que je commencerai à partir de as well as Fridays voici la phrase supplémentaire
AS well as Fridays,Sundays were not seen as viable option due to the fear that churchgoers might be swayed by what they heard of the pulpit.
De même que les vendredis,les dimanches n'étaient pas vus comme une option viable en raison de la crainte que les fidèles ne fussent influencés par ce qu'ils entendaient à la chaire.

Hello!
Here's Part II:
One notable exception to this was when the Scottish town of Hamilton held a by-election on a Wednesday so as not to interfere with the kick off of the 1978 World Cup in Argentina the following day.
The nation's love for the beautiful game is well-known, but not enough to stop general elections from being on a Thursday. But is the reason for polling day being on a Thursday due to another of the nation's favourite pastimes – a trip to the pub?
Some people believe that Fridays were seen as being an unsuitable day for voting due to it being payday, with people potentially too busy doing fun things such as socialising or visiting the pub to go and vote.
As well as Fridays, Sundays were not seen as a viable option due to the fear that churchgoers might be swayed by what they heard from the pulpit.
By choosing a midweek day, voters would be away from the influence of the pub or church.
Une exception notable à cela fut lorsque la ville écossaise d'Hamilton organisa une élection partielle un mercredi pour ne pas interférer avec le coup d'envoi de la coupe du monde de 1978 en Argentine le lendemain.
L'amour de la nation pour le football est bien connu, mais pas suffisant pour empêcher que des élections se tiennent un mardi. Mais la (véritable) raison pour que la journée électorale se situe un mardi n'est-elle pas due à un autre des passe-temps favoris de la nation : une virée au pub ?
Des gens pensent qu'on considérait le vendredi comme une journée inappropriée pour une élection, étant un jour de paie avec potentiellement des gens trop occupés à faire des choses amusantes comme de la vie sociale ou se rendre au pub pour aller voter.
Tout comme le vendredi, on ne considérait pas le dimanche comme une option viable en raison de la crainte que les pratiquants pussent être influencés par ce qu'ils entendaient de la chaire.
En choisissant une journée au milieu de la semaine, les votants seraient loin de l'influence du pub ou de l'église.

Hello, Dears!
Here is your FOLLOW-UP-WORK: Un grand merci à nos TROIS SUPER VOLONTAIRES ...
Why do we always vote in general elections on a Thursday?
Since 1931, every general election has been held on a Thursday – but this hasn't always been the case.
Until 1918, polling could take place over several days with there also having been examples of voting taking place on different days in different constituencies.
Given that there is no official reason for why Thursdays became the preferred day for election polling, we looked into the social and cultural factors that might be behind the decision.
As well as general elections, by-elections have by and large * been held on Thursday since 1965. /// END OF PART 1 ///
