Votes Cast

Famous quotes containing the words votes and/or cast:

    “I must sojourn once to the ballot-box before I die. I hear the ballot-box is a beautiful glass globe, so you can see all the votes as they go in. Now, the first time I vote I’ll see if the woman’s vote looks any different from the rest—if it makes any stir or commotion. If it don’t inside, it need not outside.”
    —Sojourner Truth (c. 1797–1883)

    “Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted
    within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the
    health of my countenance, and my God.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm XLII (l. XLII, 11)
