Famous quotes containing the word constituency:

    “But also the constituency determines the vote of the representative. He is not only representative, but participant. Like can only be known by like. The reason why he knows about them is, that he is of them; he has just come out of nature, or from being a part of the thing.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
