   There is a WV law that says employers have to give employees time off
for both jury duty and voting.  (I think something else as well).
   The employer has to give a solid, valid reason otherwise. 
   The only exceptions are natural disasters or some some sort of other
emergency where the employee is physically unable to be on the jury,
vote, etc.
   IOW someone can't say they can't serve/vote because the boss wouldn't
give them time off.
   Of course in some counties one can pay someone to vote for them, but
that's usually frowned upon.  
    And there are places in WV voting is taken so seriously the dead rise
to vote.
