I believe they do. Legally, if you wish to go vote your employer is obligated to make reasonable accommodations for you to do so (i.e. leave work early OR come in late if you wish to vote early in the AM. Voting stations usually open at 5 or 6am.
In some states, the law designates a specific amount of time that workers must be allowed off to vote. This time off may be paid or unpaid. Some states require your employer to give you time off only if you will not have enough time to vote before or after work, while the polls are open. Most but not all states prevent your employer from firing or disciplining you because you take time off to vote. In some states, if you do not actually vote even though you took time off for that purpose, your employer can dock your pay for the hours off, so save your receipt or other proof of voting in case you're later questioned.
I know in Northern VA, with the length of time it takes commuting with the traffic in this area, many employers are more flexible because of polling hours.
Ours is always on a Saturday. Do employers still pay you if you take time off to vote? It's still a little bit worrying, considering how Trump is able to mobilize his supporters.
But I'm going to completely guess 95% of states will say no, since polls open at 6 am and close at 9 they'll say "you can go vote after work," or something like that.
I hope so too, just to show the system's true colors. It will be great seeing black unemployment rise once again under a Democrat in office. Something to look forward to.

You mean people won't have a problem paying 8.00 for a Big Mac, or having that local McDonalds close because they can't reach their profit margins with the increased minimum wages taking into effect?

The 80's. When all of the hot chicks were Republicans and proud of it
Actually, if you base your opinion solely on the cable news networks, that hasn't changed much
So, there is a 3rd party candidate now, and it is someone we have never heard of, and someone who 4 months ago stated that he would support Trump if he were the nominee, only to do a 180 a month later
I have to hand it to Hillary. She's got double agents working on her behalf everywhere
