Holes are just lack of electrons, but electrons in motion still carry the current. Holes weren't really discussed until solid state electronics as far as I can remember. But I'm only 67.
Holes do move in the opposite direction from electrons, and electrons move from negative to positive. O'le Ben Franklin didn't know about electrons and he picked positive and negative some 250 years ago, wrong.
Holes are the predominant current in a metal lattice that's short on electrons to fill the outer orbits. Electrons are the predominant current in a metal lattice that has a surplus of electrons.
Calculations work for both holes (positive particles assumed by Franklin) and electrons, just can be confusing to those with inadequate backgrounds trying to understand electron tubes and semiconductors.
Ohms law and other electrical circuit laws apply to either selected current flow and any location for the ground in a circuit, if any.
Tractors run with positive or negative ground so long as all the accessories are set for the same polarity when they are polarity sensitive like and alternator, a radio, a planter monitor, or a JD gas gauge. Coils have a preferred polarity for better spark at the plug, not hard to adjust the coil primary connections for that.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Hydraulics - The Basics - by Curtis Von Fange. Hydraulics was one of the greatest inventions for helping man compound the work he can do. It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
