Does my employer have to let me leave work to vote?

I believe it is law. Check with yur local elections officer. They should give you time to go and vote. What are they, republican? LOL

They can't necessarily 'make' you. You can always get out of it by saying that you scheduled events around your work hours, and have obligations to keep, therefore relieving yourself of the added work. They are allowed to work you a certain amount of hours depending on your state's regulations.

Not anymore. You should have called the Secretary of State's office weeks ago if you had not yet received the ballot. By law, no votes cast after the election night deadline may be counted.

If you are eligible to vote and do not vote, then no, you should not complain. But, if you could not vote because of your age or legal status  then I suppose you can, if and only if you participate in civic affairs.\nI personaly feel that it is not enough to just vote, but to actually get your voice heard through civic participation.

Around here you can. You just have to have 24 hour notice of overtime. \n\nBut yea you can. If you are working for a company that says that much time is mandatory then just go find another job. \nIt will be alot easier than "Beating the Man"

probably none.  most US employment is employment-at-will, meaning they can let you go at any time (and you can leave at any time)

Check the visa. It should tell you if you are allowed to work or not.

Were you sponsored by your current employer? if yes than the answer is no. As a temporary worker who has been sponsored by an employer in Canada, that employer is responsible for you to the government. If you leave their employ, your permit will be suspended and you will be put on the next plane home. You can however check with immigration and you may qualify for an exemption if you have a skilled trade. This is a very touchy subject in Alberta as there are many unionized trades people waiting for work in the non unionized sector. This will become a boiling point in the next provincial election. \nGood luck!

Not to my knowledge.  It would be difficult to prove you are who you say you are if you could vote on-line.\n\nLong way of saying...you need to go out to vote.  \n\nNext-time you might consider an absentee ballot.  ; )\n\nFor this time...Go Vote!  LOL

You are most likely NOT obligated to say anything to your employer, other than MEDICAL LEAVE.  Hopefully you have a lot of time banked up!

not if you are voluntarily leaving a job.  you have had to be layed off only.

Depending on what state you are in they can. You might check with the labor board in whatever state you are in.

No.  Bring an ID or utility bill "just in case".  But if you have voted before or have recently registered you don't need to show any form of ID.\n\nIf you haven't voted in a while you may be asked to provide your date of birth.

I don't think so.  If people don't want to vote, why make them?  Will it mean anything if they just pick random people because they don't want to be there?

Yes. You can just vote for part of the ballot.

By law, employers are required to give employees time to vote.  And early voting is permitted. \n\nI do think Saturday election days would bring more people to the polls.  Many people end up missing the deadline because of work, traffic, etc.

Of course you have to get permission from the Ministry of Labor and Employment. Your new employer usually will do this for you.\n\nGood luck to you
