Electoral Failures
At elections in 1930, Goulven Mazéas was put forward by the PAB as a candidate in the Guingamp constituency, but he only secured 376 votes. Their candidate in Rennes received 81 votes out of 16084. The PAB's complete failure to gain electoral success in addition the cost of the campaigns had ruined its finances. Moreover, it was unable to compete with the Catholic regionalist party Adsao. François Debeauvais proposed the creation of a weekly newspaper entitled Le Peuple Breton to improve the party's public profile, but it could not be published for lack of funding.

Famous quotes containing the words electoral and/or failures:
“Nothing is more unreliable than the populace, nothing more obscure than human intentions, nothing more deceptive than the whole electoral system.”
—Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
“I have never worked for fame or praise, and shall not feel their loss as I otherwise would. I have never for a moment lost sight of the humble life I was born to, its small environments, and the consequently little right I had to expect much of myself, and shall have the less to censure, or upbraid myself with for the failures I must see myself make.”
—Clara Barton (1821–1912)
