    The olympics don’t take only one day, the paralympics are also a thing, as are the winter olympics. The olympics that happen on leap years are the summer olympics and February isn’t in summer.

    Early voting takes longer than a day, and there are elections other than presidential elections that happen with greater frequency.

    And February 29 doesn’t happen on years ending in 00 unless the year ends in 000.

    EDIT: scroll down to see how confidently wrong I was about leap years!

    There are other people pointing out all the pratical reasons why this isn’t the case.

    But I like the spirit and vibe of this idea, good shower thought.
