1 First Tuesday after the First Monday in November
политДень федеральных выборов в США [ Election Day] в ноябре. Первоначально установлен в 1845 как день назначения выборщиков [ elector] на президентских выборах. Закон об избрании в этот день членов Палаты представителей [ House of Representatives] в ноябре каждого четного года был принят в 1875. Закон о выборах в Сенат [ Senate, U.S.] в этот же день действует с 1914. Выбор месяца связан с тем, что Америка значительную часть своей истории была аграрной страной, и ноябрь показался законодателям самым удобным для сельских избирателей месяцем (после сбора осеннего урожая). Вторник же был выбран потому, что большинству фермеров приходилось преодолевать значительное расстояние до избирательного участка, отправившись в поездку еще в понедельник, после воскресной церковной службы, которую они не могли пропустить. Также законодателям хотелось предотвратить ситуацию, когда выборы совпадут с Днем всех святых [ All Saints' Day].English-Russian dictionary of regional studies > First Tuesday after the First Monday in November
