Famous quotes containing the words election and/or results:

    “In every election in American history both parties have their clichés. The party that has the clichés that ring true wins.”
    —Newt Gingrich (b. 1943)

    “For every life and every act
    Consequence of good and evil can be shown
    And as in time results of many deeds are blended
    So good and evil in the end become confounded.”
