The right to vote is a *consequence*, not a primary cause, of a free social system -- and its value depends on the constitutional structure implementing and strictly delimiting the voters' power; unlimited majority rule is an instance of the principle of tyranny.

14 million eligible voters who watch 'The Rock' every week.
Dwayne Johnson
I don't know what the future holds for John. If John were running, I'd come down and volunteer to help get voters out.
Phil Winters
Dave is kind of smack dab in the middle. This will be attractive to voters.
Ronald Collins
An increase of 8.75 percent over [the current] budget is what the Board of Education decided upon, based on the best information available to them at the time. I think at this time we, as the voters who elected this board, should rely on their experience and expertise to fulfill their obligation to both taxpayers and the students of Monroe.
Cindy Fox
In the end, voters will be looking at me based on my record. And my record, I think, is great. I've been consistently good on issues involving affordable housing and our public schools and public safety. I don't expect that everyone agrees with all of my positions. But if I had a record on issues that was out of step, then I'd kind of have to worry.
Phil Mendelson
I urge voters to state their position on the measure by exercising their right to vote.
Tom Anderson
He needs to reconnect with soft Democrats and independent voters, keep the rhetoric and the jokes down, and come up with some good ideas.
Allan Hoffenblum
When voters see this bill on her desk, they will expect a signature. The average Arizonan will not want to hear about legal wriggling about a separation-of-powers issue.
Stan Barnes
It is something that should not have happened. Voters should always be able to vote.
Kelley Quinn
This is a Democratic state, but all voters are fed up. As voters begin to focus on the race, they're going to vote for change.
Sherry Sylvester
Basically there are 25,000 registered voters in the district, about 4,000 will vote in this election, and whoever gets 2,000 votes will win. Can someone who's been on TV get 2,000 votes? We'll see. Am I worried? No.
Michael Moskowitz
The road map is supposed to lead to peace, but Sharon doesn't believe in peace. Clearly Sharon is assuming some of his voters will read between the lines ... and understand that he will carry out another disengagement.
Joseph Alpher
We're very happy to see it back on track. This will be an opportunity for the voters to come out and hear both candidates represent their viewpoints and have a balanced presentation of what the issues are.
Iris Nelson
Most voters don't judge a governor on one decision.
Merle Black
Ohio voters are pretty smart. They know that Bob Taft's problems are his own.
Mark Weaver
I think they've really honored the spirit of Referendum C and what the voters wanted.
Bob Stovall
The challenge to the Internet pioneers that are out there is getting the swing voters looking at the Internet - the people who aren't engaged in politics through the traditional mediums.
Matt Smyth
We must rally together in front of voters.
Francois Hollande
There was 28.16 percent of the registered voters who voted. For a primary election, that is fairly typical, ... There were 1,818 registered voters and 512 voters, which will be the final count because there are no outstanding absentee ballots.
David Yardley
It does seem as if she's gravitated to the more mainstream causes. These are easy, and from a political standpoint, no-brainers. While the families of people with mental illnesses are voters, many people with mental illnesses are not. That's not the same for people with cancer.
David Almeida
In a democracy, a leader is elected to lead according to a certain ideology. He cannot go in the opposition direction and ignore the decisions of the voters time after time.
Binyamin Netanyahu
I'm glad we won. I think there were three good candidates running this time and the voters chose Mark Sneed and myself. I'll do best my best to give the voters what they want as a board member.
Richard Vernon
What is the primary purpose of a political leader? To build a majority. If [voters] care about parking lots, then talk about parking lots.
Newt Gingrich
Voters should know if local road maintenance is less costly than the DOT (state Department of Transportation) when they go to their town meetings to vote on their budgets. Let's at least get at the truth.
Peter Mills
I think voters are expecting a competent mayor, somebody who can get things done and get them done fairly. We're in sort of a post-party politics period here, where the traditional tribal politics are being replaced by a competency model.
Doug Muzzio
I would like to get a firm price so we can get it before the voters in a referendum in November.
Norman Goldblum
They've turned their backs on the springs. They've been selling out for short term greed and development demands. And so we're taking it right back to the voters and to tell them, once again, Barton Springs is critical to our community, and we're serious about protecting them before it's too late.
Bill Bunch
You can't just go to the voters and ask them to just do what's right for the kids anymore. You have to run a true political issue campaign. You've got to convince the voters. You've got to be talking to them. You can't just assume that community spirit is going to pass the issue.
Larry Jenkins
(Voters) are not going to accept criticism as the sole source of messaging by the Democrats.
Al Cárdenas
It's a simple question, and that question has penetrated the minds of voters.
Haruo Shimada
I've always voted against raises. Raises for elected officials should be decided by voters.
Charles Crowley
Each county should be sending correspondence only to their registered voters.
Dana Williams
We are gratified by the commitment of the North Carolina Board of Elections and its Executive Director, Gary Bartlett, to assure that military members and overseas voters have a meaningful opportunity to participate in the State's second primary elections. These measures provide an immediate solution while the Legislature adopts permanent procedures, as we trust they will promptly.
Wan J. Kim
After Labor Day, we'll have a conversation with voters about what Proposition 75 is really about.
Sarah Leonard
We hope to paint a picture for those (voters). We want to give them the power their vote should have, so they have the knowledge to put into office the right people for the right reasons.
Josh Mason
They have an enormous challenge, faced by every Democratic candidate, of mobilizing voters in urban and suburban communities, mobilizing women and people of color. Our base is more complex than the Republican base, and Jon has to be out there. I think they were late, but they are beginning to tackle the challenge.
Rick Thigpen
It's been a great opportunity to be in public service and represent [the voters] ... and I'll never forget it, ... I'm going to work hard the remaining time that I have there and do everything I can do to make the valley a better place to be.
Gary Condit
Having the ads on Spanish-language TV or predominantly African American radio are great ways to inform and persuade a significant number of Hispanic and African American voters.
Ray Sullivan
Nelson's numbers are getting stronger, but about a third of the voters still say they don't know enough about him to form an opinion.
Clay F. Richards
We need someone who would represent all the voters. Someone who would be accountable to them.
Ralph Coyle
This is the first time there's been a comprehensive plan and sales tax measure for the voters in the North Bay put on that's identical for both counties.
Lillian Hames
We believe today's lawsuit will help ensure that New York voters enjoy the benefits of these important reforms.
Wan J. Kim
For so long we have needed a way to easily inform values voters here in IL of where candidates and elected officials stand on key moral issues. I think this is it.
Sandy Rios
For (Earl) not to be recognized was, I think, not only a downer for him but for the entire team. The way we were sort of looking at it is now he can go out and he prove (to voters) he belongs.
Ben Street
The bad news for the governor is that about half the voters (48 percent) say that Schwarzenegger's decision to call a special election, and the defeat of his ballot measures, has made them less likely to vote for him for re-election.
Melinda Jackson
I think the key point is that voters will only support a good project. Regardless of these kinds of things, if the need is there, voters will approve it.
Nicholas Miller
Those who vote by early ballot are high-efficacy voters. They're very concerned about the issues in their community.
Scott Somers
We got our heads together, try to figure out, ?How can we process more voters, faster??
Gloria Williams
Thanks to all the voters. Thanks for all the support. Make sure you try to get involved, make sure you voice all your opinions.
Angela Smith
Ohio's newspapers and Republican Party leaders have spoken out against Ken Blackwell's negative attacks. We wanted to share their words with Ohio voters.
Bob Paduchik
We want a constitution that the people will accept and have a greater possibility that the voters will say 'yes' to.
Saleh Al mutlaq
I think that the voters fully understand what's going on here.
Russ Diamond
There's no good time to go to voters for a tax increase.
Kevin O'shea
Voters see great promise in breakthrough research into cures of major diseases, ... If he vetoes, he is running the risk of alienating a big portion of the electorate. It makes him look out of touch.
Darrell West
They help moderate debate. Their role is to give voters a voice in elections that they may not get through the traditional parties.
Larry Harris
Voters clearly understand the importance of proper education funding. The proposal would pass with a slim majority of 56 percent if the election were held today. However, once voters learn the consequences of this funding mandate, their support decreases significantly.
Tom Shields
Voters have proven their independence in this election.
Richard Hilmer
Beating any incumbent is a difficult thing. Any number of things including name recognition and campaign funding are hard to overcome but I'm very confident that the voters in the 12th district will find me a better choice to represent them in the state senate. It's difficult but winnable.
Gregg Hannan
This governor is spending $80 million of taxpayer money on an election that voters resoundingly have said is unnecessary. That is the most important figure. The rest is campaign rhetoric.
Gale Kaufman
You're talking about upwards of a hundred thousand who are displaced, as far as voters. So that's a lot of people, and the numbers so far that have come in show there's a large hurdle to get to a high turnout in this election. I don't expect one. But I'm an optimist. We're going to do everything we can.
Melanie Campbell
The Culver-Judge campaign is excited to go to the voters with a positive, optimistic television campaign.
Patrick Dillon
I urge voters to register or re-register as a matter of urgency and not to delay it beyond this week. They will only be able to do so until the elections are formally proclaimed in the Government Gazette, and that could be imminent.
Pansy Tlakula
I'm really proud that Triad voters came through for the kids.
Dan Jackson
This is going to be a light ballot. Every 12 years, this is the smallest ballot that goes before the voters.
Gary Bartlett
Our question is what are they afraid of? Why do they feel they have to rush it? Why do they feel it's important to mislead voters on the ballot.
Dyana Mason
There are a lot of things in the charter that no longer apply and there have been a lot of new statutes that we need to incorporate. We will have to hold several public meetings. We are going to need to educate the voters about the changes.
Curtis Crews
In a healthy democracy, the voters choose representatives. In the system we have, the representatives choose the voters. That's upside down. This proposal puts us right side up again.
Deval Patrick
I wish that I'd been in Congress at some point. Especially now with Bush there. But I would have a really hard time getting elected because of my views. L.A. is very ethnic. Many of the Jewish voters would not support me because of my views on the Middle East.
Tom Hayden
Will Al Gore get the black vote? Yeah. Will Gore have to worry and make sure those voters turn out? Yeah, he has to worry a lot.
David Bositis
It is very early in the campaign and the candidates are not well known. The horse race numbers don't mean much at this point. More telling is what the voters know and don't know about the candidates.
Murray Edelman
There may be some phony or newly minted Republican candidates running on this, but the Republican voters have seen these tricks before and will likely not fall for them.
Ray Sullivan
We had concerns because we knew that there would be a strong possibility with three tax questions on the ballot that we ran a risk of voters saying no to at least one of them.
Laura Benson
I'm ecstatic. It says to me that I'm doing a good job and the voters approve of the job I'm doing.
John Purcell
We will immediately begin a broad, statewide effort to educate voters about this amendment and build on the public support we've already garnered.
Cheryl Forchilli
[The requirement] is most likely to prevent Georgia's elderly, poor and African-American voters from voting, ... For those citizens, the character and magnitude of their injury - the loss of their right to vote - is undeniably demoralizing and extreme.
Harold Murphy
The party line is the cue for most rank-and-file voters at the local level. Let's face it: Most voters don't follow politics on a day-to-day basis so many are going to follow the party organization.
Peter Woolley
It was an irresponsible attempt to drive undecided voters into Merkel's camp by appealing to xenophobic sentiment against Turks living in Germany.
Lutz Erbring
It really seems absurd to have a municipality of this size. Most of the people that live there aren't even voters. They live elsewhere most of the year. Probably a homeowners association is more democratic because most people are not voters.
Katy Sorenson
When you look at participants in study, it's not the parents. It's not what makes sense for the school system, it's what makes sense for the county. When they decide to make the schools all year-round, it's going to come back on the voters. This is what the voters asked for.
Jeanie Bohl
I am glad that I received support of so many voters and that we can together start a new chapter in Slovenia's history.
Janez Drnovsek
The polls are pretty clear that voters want limits on the government's power.
Geoff Garin
Over the last nine months, some of you may have noticed it turned out to be a real hard fought campaign. But as I stand here today, I am honored, I am humbled and I am incredibly energized by the mandate I have been given by the voters of Tompkins County.
Gwen Wilkinson
Their painstaking progress on winning Latino voters is in jeopardy because the face of the (Republican) party on this issue is Tom Tancredo. They are caught between their base and their desire to do something reasonable.
Frank Sharry
A block of more than 100,000 voters is not uninteresting for politicians, especially with next year's federal elections coming up.
Marc Demierre
That remains to be seen. I hope that both campaigns are following whatever laws apply, but at the end of the day, money is not going to be the biggest thing in the race. It's about which candidate is best at articulating what's important to voters, and I think Rod Smith has proven that he's the best candidate at that.
David Kochman
It's definitely a consideration. We know about the school bond, we know Greenways is ramping up. They're not ready to make a determination on when to go to the voters.
Pam Kiesner
George Bush was called a lap dog for Ronald Reagan. You have to overcome that. You have to overcome that by looking the voters right in the eye and have a solid reason why you are running for president.
Ron Kaufman
The relative turnout between the two bases is going to have an awful lot to do with who wins this thing. Particularly since there are so few swing voters anymore.
Stephen Craig
It was a great campaign. Both sides raised issues and I was able to talk about the vision I have for the town and the direction I'd like to see all of us move in. I think the message resonated with the voters.
Larry O'brien
Don't underestimate the power of the values voters, especially in a Republican primary.
Phil Burress
There are numbers of polling stations whose electoral material was looted by gunmen, and voters at the polling station in many areas in this area were targeted by gunmen wearing military and different uniforms.
Safwat Rashid
It just dilutes the votes of minority voters because they don't have as much access to the Internet. The more popular this is, the worse it is from our perspective.
Deborah Phillips
If this is the only opportunity that the candidates will have to debate one another, it needs to be in a setting that is open to the public. I don't understand why Mick has refused to accept the League of Woman's Voters debate.
Mark Herring
If you don't put it on as continuing, you'll have to be back to the voters all the time.
John Devilbiss
And you know who lets them get away with lying? ... Baseball writers. Hardly any Hall of Fame voters have the (guts) to stand up and say, 'These guys cheated. I'm not voting them into the Hall of Fame.' .
Patrick Reilly
The DA is not only misleading voters by creating the impression that a vote for the FF Plus helps the ANC, but it also undermines the constitutional principles of proportional representation and multi-party democracy.
Willie Spies
The greatest single advantage they have is the name of the party. A lot of voters will pull that lever because they believe (candidates) are independent.
Roger Stone
The Kellogg-Hubbard Library faces serious financial challenges. We realize we are bringing our request to voters at the last minute, but in the face of a potentially large deficit the board felt we needed to take immediate action.
Paul Costello
He's just sick about it. He feels that he let his family down, and the voters of Bristol Township down. And he's certainly not happy about not being able to vote for four years. But he's in good spirits and he's working to get his life back on track.
David Knight
Let's be clear -- state employees and other voters in New Hampshire take a huge risk by supporting him. Wesley Clark has a life-long pattern of support for national Republicans whose policies have been disastrous for public employees, and that is a track record that raises huge doubts about what he would do if he ever became President.
Andy Stern
I think voters have sent a strong message this past election that they want someone who will go down and work on issues that are priorities for the citizens in the district. Like traffic congestion and finding solutions to the traffic problems, as well as education and development. As state senator, those are the priorities that I will work on.
Mark Herring
In the last two or three weeks, there has been an increasing restlessness among conservatives, mostly about the open-ended (financial) response to Katrina, ... There's a growing number of conservative voters coming to the conclusion that Republicans have lost their way.
Michael Franc
It's never going to be as showy as in America. The voters understand it's part of a show ... but they know not to mix more politics and show business. The Germans are more fact-based and skeptical.
Michael Spreng
You're talking a 40 percent increase in taxes. Anytime political leaders decide they want to give voters a tax break, they also have to recognize there are consequences. You can't pass off the burden from one tax paying body to another.
Ted Matthews
We are really honored. It means so much more since our peers -- who are at times our rivals -- are the voters. This honor brings responsibility and the challenge to do an even better job in 2006.
Charlie Jones
It matters a lot for the party activists. It matters some for primary voters. And it matters a little for undecided general election voters. Even if it matters for 5 percent of the electorate ? no candidate can ignore that.
Jack Pitney
There is not a precinct, township or county where we don't have some volunteer or staff assets working to make sure voters are turning out for Jim. We have volunteers working the phone, door to door and getting last-minute cards out to friends.
Joe Wiegand
Dan Quayle is completely committed to this campaign, and we understand that the real test will occur early next year when voters cast their ballots in the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary.
Kyle Mcslarrow
We don?t have to sit back as voters and taxpayers and hope that the government will get to it eventually, because they have a lot of other things to deal with.
Deborah Reyher
For the peace activists, they are good, symbolic results. They can use them to impress people with how widespread opposition is. But they're misleading as far as aggregate public opinion. It's an April election, which has very low turnout. So as a public opinion specialist, I have to point out how unrepresentative highly motivated voters are in an April election.
Charles Franklin
Early indications are that voters aren't up in arms demanding big tax cuts.
Stuart Rothenberg
There's a lot more incentive to hack an election if there are millions of voters and you can swing important races. Whereas, if only hundreds of voters are voting over the internet, there's going to be a lot less incentive to exploit the vulnerabilities.
David Wagner
We were aware of that. The vast majority of handicapped voters in White County vote absentee or early.
Norm Southerland
I'm not leaving the field but I've learned that in life you either diminish or you grow and I chose to grow. I really believe voters will choose a candidate that represents competency, character and commitment and this shows commitment.
Brian O'donnell
About one out of five voters cast their ballots for Milosevic in Serbia's parliamentary elections in December, making his Socialist Party the main opposition group.
Alessio Vinci
It's comforting to know that the gap appears to have narrowed since voters have gotten to see both candidates up close and personal.
Greg Bortolin
This visit, a pre-primary endorsement before the voters and my neighbors have had the opportunity to listen and learn about both Republican candidates, has raised legitimate concerns for many.
Rep. Terri Mccormick
There are some so-called environmentalists who primarily work for developers, and it's understandable they'd be opposed to reforms that would hurt their clients. We're optimistic the voters will embrace the important reforms from both the SOS and open government online charter amendments.
Colin Clark
I think we will eventually need to have an operating budget referendum but the problem is I don't think voters will go for it until we've changed how we handle the budget that we have.
Lucy Mathiak
The state removed Latino voters from District 23 because they were Latinos.
Nina Perales
They have been with me on the campaign trail and heard my message more than any other voters in the city.
Arnold Fielkow
The only people who seem to be all exercised about tax cuts are legislators. Voters want decent education, they want health care, they want clean air, they want transportation. They say it over and over again, but the Legislature is not listening.
Carol Kamin
[That assumes, of course, that voters are paying close attention. Few are--at least at this point.] They're more interested in spending time with their families and planning for graduation or summer vacations, as well they should, ... the details laid out now will provide the foundation for the debate that takes place in the fall, when people do start to tune in.
Chris Lehane
The main concern we have in the civil rights community isn't necessarily that that DOJ brought this case. It's that the department is not bringing meritorious cases on behalf of African-American and Native American voters.
Jon Greenbaum
I think, like any poll, it's both good news and bad news. The good news is, it shows that voters want change and they know our initiative is the one that will provide change. The bad news is, it shows voters are not fully aware of what the competitive initiative is. This will not provide the changes they expect.
Michael Hackett
When voters read the ballot question, they will ask how the city can call this no new taxes.
Bill Vandenberg
I do hope, however, that he takes seriously the message sent by over 47 percent of the voters - and by a community of progressive donors from across the country - that a Democratic congressman's first responsibility is to stand up for the needs of seniors, of children and of working families.
Ciro Rodriguez
Voters will be willing to listen to what she has to say but if (her image) continues to be the one that it was in these incidents, she won't be able to beat Bill Nelson or anybody else.
Lynda Lee Kaid
What we expect to get out of this is the declaration that the coup was wrong and that the rights of the petitioners were violated. No matter what happens on Tuesday, the election is going to be an empty exercise, unless the international community respects the Haitian voters' decision.
Brian Concannon
I like him, but he's not getting the job done. Anybody who has been there that long would grow complacent and develop a feeling of immunity from the voters. The fact is, we keep sending people back to Washington year after year. I don't know how we expect anything to change.
Ralph Mcgill
Not only is it early in the election cycle, but neither of these candidates has ever mounted a statewide race. Both will have to introduce themselves to voters around the state.
Peter Woolley
Our primary issue is lying about the Iraq war. We can show that he knowingly lied about the reasons for that war. The voters need to understand that the Democrats are willing to hold them accountable and pursue this.
Bob Fertik
It should make it a pretty clear race for the voters.
John Mcclelland
I don't want to attack that group. We'll let the voters decide in August. To me if you look at a map it is pretty obvious what their motives are. But I'm not going to get into a debate over it.
David Hopcraft
It will be a clear up or down vote without muddying up the waters, so we will get a clear indication of what the voters want.
Richard Ross
Republicans have not been doing their share of registering voters. The Democrats should be congratulated.
Jim Stuart
The challenge for him this time is really twofold: first of all, he's got very strong disapproval ratings among the voters, who are opposing his measures, particularly Democrats, and secondly, there is a very substantial amount of money that is being spent on the 'no' side.
Mark Baldassare
These numbers are not important to us because Republican voters focus on principle, not public polls which will continue bouncing around.
Alberto Martinez
We are glad to see that Canadians have values-voters, too.
Bob Morrison
Callous and irresponsible attempt to misguide voters and exploit the trauma of those who survived or were bereaved by the massacre.
Paddy Ashdown
It fits into his general framework of, 'I care less about the politics than in policy that makes sense'. I think that that's the image I have of him. That's the image he'd like voters to have of him.
Douglas Rivlin
The photo ID bill is clearly in violation of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and will effectively silence thousands of Georgia's voters of all races and ages.
Jennifer Owens
[Bush's promise to name conservatives justices,] more than perhaps any other, charged me and millions of other values voters across the land to vote for Mr. Bush, ... presents the most important opportunity we may have for decades to stop the nation's courts from stripping away our Judeo- Christian heritage.
Tony Perkins
I think the voters in the district wanted change, and they supported my effort to bring change to the board.
Adam Warpinski
I believe in my heart that voters will have compassion in their hearts for people and that they will vote this in.
Matthew Barber
While a majority of the voters view both candidates as being honest and trustworthy, the number who did not jumped eight points for Mr. Forrester and four for the senator.
Clay F. Richards
The total number of eligible voters is 15.5 million, ... and we expect the turn-out to reach 11 or 12 million.
Farid Ayar
When you've got the Republican governor of Colorado running around the state asking voters to suspend their TABOR law, and they're talking about privatizing their higher ed system because they can't afford it, it shows it's one of those things that would have a significant negative impact on public safety and education in Nevada.
Richard Perkins
It's a shame the voters didn't see we did everything we could.
Maureen Broderick
It's part of the national Republican strategy to try to drive up turnout among the Republican faithful, and to try to scare voters into voting for an issue that's really not one of their top priorities.
Brian Melendez
It's nice to get national recognition and for the panel of voters to consider us a Top 20- level team. But ultimately, we're not real concerned with national rankings but putting ourselves in the region tournament.
Karl Smesko
We anticipated this. Voters are really hungry to have it on the ballot.
Chris Fitz
Voters can now check how many times Bush resorts to canned remarks.
Joe Andrew
I will listen and if I can't provide an answer, I'll find one and get back (to them). There are several organizations that have been ignored and nobody told them why. That's one thing I believe in, if someone asks you a question, you need to know an answer or find one out. Voters want to hear back from their officials and want officials to give them the time of day.
Clay Harris
The voters reward good performance. So, I'm going to go out and focus, if I become the governor, to do the very best job I can as governor. The rest of it will take care of itself.
Dave Heineman
The bottom line is I would expect some form of debt exclusion question to appear on next April's ballot, either to cover the design costs or the whole thing, ... We cannot obtain state approval and the funding that comes with it without a commitment from the voters.
Chris Morrison
The races for the N.C. Supreme Court and N.C. Court of Appeals are the only statewide contests on the ballot this year, so it's key that voters across North Carolina have the facts on these candidates. The State Judicial Voter Guide does just that.
Chris Heagarty
If this had happened when the voters were in a better mood or the political environment was not as bad for Republicans, then the likelihood of this story being able to gain that much momentum would be smaller.
Amy Walter
One of the most formidable obstacles is the simple fact that voters are at the beach when clean candidates knock on their doors during July and August.
Amy Handlin
The scare is beginning to pass. Voters are starting to focus instead on the government's achievements.
Ricardo Guedes
It's pretty hard to know the best strategy -- it's very tricky. Unless you challenge, how do you gain? And yet most voters don't really care for the partisan bickering.
Stuart Elway
They used huge numbers of armed thugs who attacked the election observers and the voters, and the security did nothing to stop them.
Amir Salem
We want to ensure that we give voters of New York real numbers.
John Ravitz
He's truly a renaissance individual for our times, ... I've likened him to a Will Rogers voice in Congress (with) humor (and) common sense. He brought real legislative achievements, working on environmental issues for Southern California ... working on issues for the voters of California by protecting their will against activist judges. He was a well-rounded and dedicated lawmaker.
Frank Cullen
Everything is based on what happened in 2005 when he dominated the World Championships. As for the award, the voters will take care of it.
John Hodges
Based on the national elections that took place in January, we anticipate that insurgents will attempt to intimidate voters and deprive them of the opportunity to vote.
John Vines
Mount Vernon has over 1,000 registered voters. And the votes at town meeting usually brings out 65 to 75 people on average. Sometimes at the beginning there may be 80 or 85 people but by the time 31/2 hours has gone by, there's only about 45 to 50 people voting.
Bruce Inch
Give voters confidence and faith in the elections process.
Bill Stephens
There's a different kind of Europe to be built and on May 13 voters must decide to choose to lose national sovereignty by voting for the left and putting Italy in the hands of technocrats, or take the road of freedom.
Umberto Bossi
They are two big mandates that we have to meet. If the two referendums are not passed by voters, it will cost $200 million more to fund them than what is already allowed by TABOR limits. No state has found a cure for Medicaid, and there is no magic bullet.
Brad Young
It's not enough. He knows it's very popular among voters, and he's trying to improve his record for reelection.
Art Pulaski
Voters at a rally at 8 a.m. don't know Gore will keep going at 8 p.m..
Andrew Kohut
If for some reason the voters really want 3,500 homes and no commercial and they vote down the PUD plan, then we proceed with Plan B. I'll be surprised if the majority of people around there really want to see 3,500 homes.
Dan Griffin
The guy was shouting for almost 10 minutes, disturbing other voters. I had to call the police to calm him down.
Kraisorn Polsiri
My feeling is that in four-to-five years, that's going to become one of the major communication systems in campaigns. It creates an opportunity for voters, people in general, to have a voice -- a very convenient voice.
Vic Rubenstein
Japanese voters have shown in the last elections their deep understanding toward Prime Minister Koizumi who says pos-tal reform is the core of his reform program.
Tsutomu Takebe
My secret campaign weapon is Rufus, whose 17 pounds of furry affection provides a playmate for the children of voters, giving mom and dad a few minutes to talk about their vision for the future.
Conny Culver
Enough people came out to vote against the establishment. If they think they've won, they haven't. Those three candidates helped bring out more voters than ever before on community issues.
Joe Ferrer
Frankly, elections are run by humans. Sometimes (errors) are of great consequence, such as this one, and sometimes they're of lesser consequence... I don't feel that blaming or trying to find out which human made which mistake is very productive or helpful. We just want to give voters an honest and fair opportunity to cast ballots at affordable if not minimal cost to taxpayers.
Phil Lenzini
If a county touches the coast, it's going to be very different politically, and the differences are becoming more dramatic. Voters there have a very different attitude about a lot of things.
Darry Sragow
America's economy is best served by reasonable increases in the minimum wage, so that we don't hurt small businesses from growing and creating future employment opportunities. Nationwide, voters will continue to reject Democrat support for higher taxes and lawsuits that impair our nation's economic progress.

Once we receive the equipment, we have to have the staff trained on this and get our election judges trained. We'd also like to take it around the county and demonstrate it to the voters so that when they walk into the polling place for the first time it's not the first time they've seen the equipment.
Josh Liss
And I can tell you we're devastated to see the endorsements of officials from Cypress, Villa Park and Fountain Valley. We know how much influence they have over the voters of this district. We hope to counter soon with the endorsements of officials from Needles, Modesto and Cucamonga.
James Vaughn
Because the voters are going to decide this issue one way or the other, I just don't think the candidates' positions are that big of a deal.
John Hancock
De Villiers embodies a more radical right, but less extremist, more respectable one than the National Front of Jean Marie Le Pen. So that could steal away voters, especially those from the traditionalist right who adhere to values of family, order, authority, religion.
Nonna Mayer
You look at primary after primary and a lot of new voters came out, but a lot of them went for McCain. Whether they stay in through November or go back to sitting on their hands remains to be seen.
Tony Blankley
The Department of Justice Civil Rights Division found that the new identification requirements had no negative purpose or effect, nor is there any evidence, for that matter, that the voter ID requirements have a negative effect on the turnout of any voters.
Brian Roehrkasse
Bush has to give a compelling reason to voters to make a change. In times of peace and prosperity, the incumbent party has all the trump cards.
