Legislative Council Summary. Antony Green Election Guide. Western Australia 2005. Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) A half-Senate election cannot be held until a year before Senators' terms expire, and it is the limitation on the terms of Senators that often prevents early House elections being called until the last year of the Senate term. Unlike the Senate, a vacancy is not filled by appointment, but by examining the quota of votes achieved by a candidate on election. 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. www.abc.net.au /elections/wa/2005/guide/lcsummary.htm   (1447 words)

1996 Report Right before the 1996 parliamentary elections, the two draft bills were already on the agenda of the Chamber of Deputies where, mainly for electoral reasons and unlike the previous years, the main trend went along with the modifications. At the beginning of 1996, the draft bill was sent to the Senate in the version adopted by the Chamber of Deputies. On the other hand, election results prove that the imperative regulations failed to lead to the expected results, which is only natural because a party's reliability cannot be imposed by law and does not depend solely on the number of its members. www.apador.org /rapoarte/anuale/1996e.htm   (282 words)

Election Resources on the Internet: Federal Elections in Canada - Elections to the House of Commons 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. 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. The Parliament of Canada consists of a lower chamber, the House of Commons, whose members are directly elected by universal adult suffrage for a maximum term of five years, and an upper chamber, the Senate, whose members are appointed on a provincial basis and may hold office until they are 75 years of age. electionresources.org /ca   (1208 words)
