This day is identical to dies fasti (or dies profesti) except that dies Comitiales are reserved for the celebration of public assemblies. If no magistrate calls any of the Comitia on a dies comitialis, it shall be treated as a dies fastus. If a magistrate call the Comitia, then a vote may take place.
