If you do that, make sure it's a guaranteed public holiday or have laws in place to ensure workers can get time off to vote.

the way this works in australia is that election day is always a sunday (i think? or saturday?) but you can early vote at any number of larger polling stations without giving a reason… also postal vote

but given your name, maybe you know that? :p

Or, you know, just have mail in voting available nationwide.
