Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents primary source material exploring a contested election for the American Congress in 1910. The election, held in Connecticutâs 3rd Congressional District, was particularly notable because it was the first time the state's voters had used a new ballot format. The author presents various documents related to the contest, including the initial notice of the dispute, the defendant's response, stipulations made by both parties, and exhibits such as the official ballot and the attorney general's opinion on how to interpret the new ballot law. The case eventually went before three judges of the Connecticut Supreme Court of Errors, who were tasked with reviewing the ballots and determining the correct outcome of the election. By delving into the minutiae of a specific historical election, this book sheds light on broader issues surrounding the American electoral process and the challenges of implementing changes to voting systems.
