Fair Election

Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or election:

    “He neither shall be christened
    In white wine or red,
    But with fair spring water,
    With which we were christenèd.”
    —Unknown. As Joseph Was a-Walking (l. 17–20)

    Well, I am chiefly interested in the renomination, so don’t get disconsolate over that. If we lost the election I shall feel that the party is rejected, whereas if I fail to secure the renomination it will be a personal defeat.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
