La semaine précédente, les étudiants peuvent avoir voté dans la circonscription de leur campus ou, si besoin est, s'ils ont déjà fini, ils peuvent choisir d'aller voter à leur lieu de résidence. Le quatrième lundi d'avril, les étudiants n'ont donc pas déserté de façon massive les campus.

Some opponents to this date could raise a question concerning students. We have done some checks in this regard. Normally, universities end classes in the last days of April. The preceding week, students could vote in their campus constituency or, if required because their classes have already ended, they could choose to vote in their home district. On the fourth Monday of April, students have not massively deserted campuses. We have checked. Contrary to Thanksgiving, Easter is not a fixed-date holiday. It varies; I’ve never understood how that date is set. It may be due to a link to the Roman calendar or it is perhaps part of the Judeo-Christian tradition. Easter sometimes lands in March, sometimes in April. It’s been too long since I served at Easter mass for me to remember the logic that dictates when Easter is in March and when it is in April. We’ve looked forward fifteen years. In that time, advance polling falling on Easter weekend will take place only once, which I admit would present a certain disadvantage.
