Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Parliamentary Elections: Under the Reform Act, 1918; As Amended by Later Legislation The Representation of the People Act of 1918 has made some important changes in the law affecting Parliamentary Elections. Not only has the Electorate been vastly increased, the constituencies made more equal in size, and the smaller boroughs absorbed by the new county divisions, but the cost of Elections has been greatly reduced; while the provision for all polls at a General Election to be held on one day will minimise the disorganisation of business caused by the Elections extending over several weeks. The latter provision will tend to a freer election, eliminating the influence on Elections held on later days by those held on earlier days, which often greatly affected the voting of persons of weak political faith, who heretofore voted on what they thought to be the winning side. Posters calling Electors to "Vote for Jones and the flowing tide," once answered by a waggish agent, who put out counter posters, "Vote for Brown and dam the flowing tide," will in future be unnecessary. The appointment of Public Officials as Returning Officers will also probably be of great value. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
