	Legislative Council Summary. Antony Green Election Guide. Western Australia 2005. Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC)

		Another difference that comes into play between elections is that when a MLC resigns, their place is filled by a countback of votes, as occurs in the Tasmanian House of Assembly.
		In 1996, the conservative side of politics lost control of the chamber for the first time, winning only half of the seats in the Council, 17 out of 34 positions.

	Election Resources on the Internet: Federal Elections in Canada - Elections to the House of Commons
		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.
		Consequently, had the government been defeated in the House of Commons, it would have been forced to either resign or ask for a dissolution of Parliament and an early general election.
		The 38th general election was called in May 2004 by Prime Minister Paul Martin, a former Finance Minister who was elected leader of the ruling Liberal Party in November 2003 and who has been in office since December 2003, when Jean Chrétien stepped down after ten years as head of government.

	Cuban's in the 1996 Presidential Election
		The 1996 election results are the most obvious indication of this in that it reversed the overwhelming support Cubans have shown for the Republican party and its candidates in past elections, and was at the least more proximate to the electoral outcomes evident among Latinos at large.
		The 1996 election, more than any other to date, may come to be viewed as a harbinger of enhanced cooperation among Cuban-Americans and other Latino groups in terms of the fashioning of political agendas that are in some important respects unified.
		In the wake of the 1996 election, and various policy initiatives that are of particular concern to many Latinos, we may yet see evidence of change with regard to all three of the above criteria.
