Famous quotes containing the words election and/or results:

    “Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “The restlessness that comes upon girls upon summer evenings results in lasting trouble unless it is speedily controlled. The right kind of man does not look for a wife on the streets, and the right kind of girl waits till the man comes to her home for her.”
    —Sedalia Times (1900)
