	Minority governments in Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the 1921 election the Liberals under William Lyon Mackenzie King fell one seat short of a majority government.
		However, the dissolution was portrayed as a blunder, and in the subsequent 1980 election, the Tories were defeatedby the Liberals.
		Although the 2004 federal election was initially expected to be easy for Martin to win a fourth consecutive Liberal majority government, during the campaign many began instead to predict a far closer result.

		But the most serious impact that became apparent in the 1921 election was that large numbers of women seemed to have been prevented from voting, despite the removal of legal restrictions in 1917-18.
		The postcards were dropped after this election, and from the 1940 election until 1982 (when postcards were reintroduced), voters were sent a copy of the list showing the name, address, and occupation of all voters in the relevant poll.
		A significant innovation of the 1920 elections act was the provision for voting in advance of election day by specified groups of voters: commercial travellers, railwaymen, and sailors could vote during the three days (excluding Sundays) preceding an election.

		Held, as by statute the election should have been held on the second Tuesday after the first Monday in August, 1921, the call for the election was irregular as to time, but the election was not void.
		Because the school board posted the notice of the election held on the 15th day of August, we do not think it can be said that a different board called the election than the one provided by statute.
		The school election which was held was an election which the excise board directed to be held, and while irregular for the reason that the same was held on a day other than the day fixed by the excise board, was not for that reason alone void.

	The Swedish Political Parties
		Not until the 1988 election was this quintet—Social Democrats, Communists, Moderates (Conservatives), Liberals and Centrists—joined by a newcomer in the form of the Green Party, which in turn paved the way for two new parties, the Christian Democrats and New Democracy, in the 1991 election.
		As elections are held simultaneously (since 1994, every four years) to Parliament, county councils and municipal councils, election campaigns are national affairs and this makes it difficult for small, local parties with nationwide ambitions to catch the attention of the media.
		The franchise is extended to foreign nationals for the county council and municipal elections on condition that they have resided in Sweden for at least three years prior to the election date.
