  • Oppose. I think you might be misreading it. The Google Ngrams actually show that "day labor" is more common, though it is fairly close. Regardless, better to keep the current title as "day laborer" redirects here and it is much more common than "daily laborer".[1] Rreagan007 (talk) 01:01, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Agree with Rreagan007 with slightly misreading the ngrams but also: we don't move only based on ngrams and, perhaps more importantly, for phrases like this you need to be sure that you're not getting false matches. The phrase "daily labor" is used but it tends to be used about a different concept: the total amount of labor available on any particular day for businesses, which includes non-day laborers. While "day labor" seems to be almost exclusively used to describe the topic of this article, hiring/working on a single/day-to-day basis. Skynxnex (talk) 02:14, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
