Fair Election

Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or election:

    A monk ther was, a fair for the maistrie,
    An outridere, that lovede venerie,
    A manly man, to been an abbot able.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    [If not re-elected in 1864] then it will be my duty to so co-operate with the President elect, as to save the Union between the election and the inauguration; as he will have secured his election on such ground that he can not possibly save it afterwards.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
