	Alberta general election, 1905 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Alberta general election of 1905 was the first general election held in the Province of Alberta, Canada.
		The Alberta Liberal Party of Alexander C. Rutherford won twenty three of the twenty five seats in the new legislature, defeating the Conservative Party, which was led by a young lawyer, Richard Bennett, who later served as Prime Minister of Canada.
		The election in 1905 was a bitter one, especially in Calgary and Southern Alberta where the Liberals were accused of vote tampering and interfering with Conservative voters.

	Maple Leaf Web -- Alberta Party Parties
		Alberta’s inception as a province in 1905 heralded the birth of the Conservative Party of Alberta.
		A surprise by-election victory for Elmer Roper in Edmonton in 1942 gave the CCF their first seat; they followed that with a few seats over the next several elections.
		Following the election disaster, Martin resigned and was replaced in 1994 by leader Ross Harvey, a former researcher for the provincial party, and the first (and only) New Democrat ever elected to represent Alberta in the House of Commons (Edmonton East in 1988).

		In the ensuing January 23, 2006 general election, the Liberals were defeated by the Conservatives, who emerged as the largest party in the House of Commons, although well short of an absolute majority.
		As in the United Kingdom, the Crown is formally an integral part of Parliament, but the role of the monarch - since 1952, Queen Elizabeth II - and of her representative in Canada, the Governor General, is primarily ceremonial.
		Between 1962 and 1980, eight federal elections were held in Canada, five of which (1962, 1963, 1965, 1972 and 1979) resulted in minority governments, as no party won an absolute majority of seats in the House of Commons.

	thetyee.ca Looks Bleak for Third Parties (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The 1920 general election, conducted in the aftermath of the First World War, saw a plethora of upstart political parties, many of which were composed of war veterans.
		The 1924 general election also saw the emergence of the Provincial Party, an amalgam of disgruntled Tories and the United Farmers of B.C. Three seats were won by the new party, which disappeared before the next contest, although MLA G.A. Walkem won re-election as a Conservative.
		It is evident that relatively few cnadidates win election to the legislature under minor party banners, and that many of those who do had earlier won their seats with a different, and often major, party.

		The August 1948 provincial election was the last hurrah of the Communists as a mass political party in the Alberta Crowsnest Pass, and indeed in Alberta.
		Uphill’s winning share of the popular vote in the provincial elections in the early 1950s was 34 per cent in a 4 candidate election in 1952 and 44 per cent in a 3 candidate election in 1953.
		He won the elections by winning a plurality of votes in each of the coal mining centres of Fernie and Michel-Natal, and because the population of the constituency was concentrated in those centres.

	The Honourable E. Peter Lougheed, 1971-85
		Subsequently, at the provincial election of 1967, he was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Alberta to represent the electoral district of Calgary West and, from 1967 to 1971, he served as Leader of the Official Opposition.
		At the provincial election of 1971, E. Peter Lougheed was reelected, and the Alberta Progressive Conservative Party won the majority of seats in the Legislature.
		During his tenure as Premier, the Alberta Government's major priorities were the control of Alberta's natural resources and their development for future generations of Albertans; participation of Albertans in the mainstream of Canadian life; economic diversification; and the improvement of health, research, and recreational facilities in the Province.

		In the 1945 federal election, the LPP candidate was the president of the Blairmore Local of the UMWA; he gained the largest share of Pass votes in a five-party race, winning 37 per cent of the 3646 ballots cast.
		The strength of the CCF in the BC Crowsnest in the mid-1950s compared to its annihilation in the Alberta Pass is, of course, partly due to the strength of the respective provincial parties.
		In contrast, in provincial politics in the Alberta Crowsnest the LPP abandoned a labour unity approach in the provincial election of 1948 and from that point on was a marginal political force.

	Yonatan Reshef: Germany
		Trade unionists and generals were confronting recalcitrant industrialists who were not prepared to make concessions or conclude compromises for the sake of military victory.
		Historians generally agree that, even if major employers were not directly and openly involved in the events that led to Hitler's coming to power, they contributed indirectly to the destruction of the Weimar Republic by refusing to support it and link up with those political forces that could have been rallied in the Republic's defense.
		Against the background of continuing discussions about the decentralization of collective bargaining after the general election in September 2005, the results confirm the findings from the previous survey in 2002 that a majority of members of works councils do not want a further decentralization of bargaining.

	Social Credit
		In 1952 Bennett was soundly elected, and a second province fell under the rule of the Social Credit movement.
		After Aberhart's death in 1943 the Alberta wing of the movement was continued by Ernest Manning, a fellow clergyman who was able to successfully capture his predecessor's spirit, and rode his party to another massive electoral victory.
		In Alberta, Manning's retirement had taken much of the air out of the party, and the new leader Harry Strom was soundly defeated by Conservative Party leader Peter Lougheed.

		The United Farmers of Alberta moved their hall from the corner two miles south of Grimshaw to town.
		The latter event, without fate or fanfare, was really the beginning of the growth of Grimshaw, for the employment generated by the transportation industry, and later the construction industry, would eventually differentiate Grimshaw from other North Peace centers.
		The prosperity and sure growth of this town is assured by the importance of Grimshaw as a distibution point for the Northwest of Alberta.

		However, Lincoln and general in chief Henry Halleck were concerned that Burnside was focused solely on capturing Richmond; they believed that the goal should be to destroy Lee's army.
		For a generation whisper of "El Dragon" was sufficient to warn every child to bed and more importantly every shipping manager, captain and dock clerk to do his best for King and kind.

		The current law, N.J.S.A. 19:13-20, sets a procedure for ballot substitutions "not later than the 51st day before the general election" but does not expressly prohibit substitutions after that date.
		The court thus followed its tradition of liberally construing election laws to ensure voters' choice of candidates.
		In any event, she said, it is the Legislature's province to fashion a law that does not permit late ballot shuffles.
