In which month do Americans vote for the president during an election year?

In the United States, the presidential election takes place on the first Tuesday following the first Monday in November. This timing was established by federal law and reflects the agricultural society at the time, making it easier for voters to travel to polling places after the harvest season. As a result, November is the month designated for this important civic duty. The other months listed do not correspond to when presidential elections are held: October is before the election, January and December follow the election. Thus, November is the clear and correct choice for when Americans vote for the president.
