NSW Legislative Assembly Hansard Full Day Transcript It would be pointless for direct election purists to claim that a majority no vote was a result of their intervention to get what they see as a more democratic version of a republic later. It states, "The legislative power of the Commonwealth shall be vested in a Federal Parliament which shall consist of a President, a Senate and a House of Representatives." In other words substituting the word "President" for the words "Queen" or "Governor-General" follows automatically every other change. There would then be a full-blooded election campaign and the candidates would be supported in their resources, both financial and policy, by their respective parties. www.parliament.nsw.gov.au /Prod/Parlment/HansTrans.nsf/all/CA256D110020B6CD4A256817005E60B6   (601 words)

The World Series and the Presidency As of 1976, there had been 18 presidential elections since the first World Series in 1903, and this theory worked 12 out of 18 times. What many people do not realize is that during presidential election years, the league that wins the World Series determines which party wins the White House. The New York Times carried an article in October 1976 explaining that the Democrats win the White House if the National League wins the World Series and the Republicans win if the American League does. www.economics.pomona.edu /StatSite/Baseball.html   (1638 words)

Patterns of Democracy New elections were held that October and Labour won an outright, albeit narrow, majority of the seats; but this majority was eroded by defections and by-election defeats, and the Labour cabinet again became a minority cabinet in 1976. For one thing, PR was adopted for all elections in Northern Ireland (with the exception of elections to the House of Commons) after the outbreak of Protestant-Catholic strife in the early 1970s. Other parties also contest elections and win seats in the House of Commons-in particular the Liberals and, after their merger with the Social Democratic party in the late 1980s, the Liberal Democrats-but they are not large enough to be overall victors. www.cla.wayne.edu /polisci/kdk/Parties/sources/lijphart.htm   (10330 words)
