U.S. presidential election, 2004 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Although the overall result of the election was not challenged by the Kerry campaign, third-party presidential candidates David Cobb and Michael Badnarik obtained a recount in Ohio. Election watchers and political analysts forecast a number of contested election results in a manner similar to the Florida voting recount of 2000. The 2004 election was the first to be affected by the campaign finance reforms mandated by the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (also known as the McCain-Feingold Bill for its sponsors in the United States Senate). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/U.S._presidential_election,_2004   (5501 words)

U.S. presidential election, 1972 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This election had the lowest voter turnout for a presidential election since 1948, with only 55 percent of the electorate voting. The establishment-favorite for the nomination was 1968 Vice Presidential candidate, the moderate Ed Muskie, but he failed to live up to expectations in key primaries and the press caught him at an emotional moment when he appeared to be crying, further hurting his support.

USIS -- Issues of Democracy, September 1996 --Financing Presidential Election Campaigns The feasibility of public financing in the last five presidential campaigns depended on the taxpayers' willingness to earmark a small portion of their tax liabilities -- $1 for individuals and $2 for married persons filing jointly -- for the Presidential Election Campaign Fund by using the federal income tax checkoff on their tax forms. In the 1992 general election campaign, the fifth in which public funds were provided, incumbent Republican George Bush had about $90 million spent by his campaign or on his behalf, including a public grant of $55.2 million. At the federal level, the results of those reform efforts -- and of subsequent attempts to ease the burdens of laws imposed on candidates and committees -- are embodied in the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 (FECA), the Revenue Act of 1971, and the FECA Amendments of 1974, 1976 and 1979. usinfo.state.gov /journals/itdhr/0996/ijde/alex.htm   (2235 words)

Atlas Forum - 1972 Presidential Election-California As 1972 and 1984 (to a lesser extent) proved that is not an automatic advantage.

Pitt experts consider tightest ever U.S. presidential election "I think the closeness of this election -- both of the voting in the presidential election and the closeness of the party split in the Senate and the House -- indicates that there is no mandate for either presidential candidate. The winner of the clos- est presidential elec- tion in U.S. history wasn't expected to be announced until the end of today (Nov. 9) at the earliest. That is, both parties are going to hope that in the 2002 elections they will seize control of Congress sufficiently to enact their legislative portfolios. www.pitt.edu /utimes/issues/33/001109/01.html   (3325 words)

U.S. Presidential Election — Stolen Again Most of us thought that the presidential campaign of 2004 was a genuine contest, and that the voters really might have elected either of the candidates, Bush and Kerry. The fact that, in the 2004 election, all voting equipment technologies except paper ballots were associated with large unexplained exit poll discrepancies all favoring the same party certainly warrants further inquiry. If a government cannot prove the honesty and accuracy of the election by which they claim authority, the people are neither morally nor legally obligated to obey that government's dictates or to pay its bills. www.serendipity.li /jsmill/vote_fraud_2004.htm   (2603 words)
