	Quebec general election, 1944 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Quebec general election of 1944 was held on August 8, 1944 to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Quebec, Canada.
		This election marked Duplessis's comeback after having defeated Godbout in the 1936 election and having lost to him in the 1939 election.
		Duplessis won another three elections in a row, for a total of five terms of office (four consecutive), before dying in office in 1959.

	27 Wn.2d 685, CHARLES R. CAREY v. THE PORT OF SEATTLE et al. DANIEL L. HILL et al.
		At the special election held in the port district November 5, 1946, a total of 133,025 votes were cast upon the proposition for the issuance of the general obligation bonds, of which total votes 88,732 were in favor of the bond issue and 44,293 were against the bond issue.
		The general election held November 7, 1944, was "the general county or state election next preceding" the bond election of November 5, 1946, and the total number of votes cast in King county at that general election, as certified by the county auditor and the county canvassing board of election returns, was 293,132.
		The bonds which appellants seek to issue and sell are invalid, as the number of voters participating in the bond election did not constitute fifty per cent of the total number of votes cast in the port district, the boundaries of which are coterminous with the county, at the next preceding general election of 1944.
