I know how it feels when you're coming into a new situation, that the other guys won the election.
If a president can change some laws, can he change ALL laws? Can he change election laws? Can he change discrimination laws? Are there any laws, under your theory, that he actually HAS to enforce?
For the first stage of his dictatorship, Vladimir Putin was involved in destroying public space. On the first day he was in office, he introduced legislation that reformed and over five years effectively dismantled the electoral system. So anything that passes for elections in Russia today has nothing to do with actual elections.
Our party supports decriminalisation of cannabis. It's not a priority for this election campaign but it has been a long-standing policy of ours.
I would argue [Donald]Trump is the [Barack] Obama of this election cycle.
When you have elections in which 90% or 95% or 99% of those elected come from one party, then I think there is some fraudulent act.
Well, you know what, I'm 60 years old, and I've been interested in politics since I was on my daddy's knee. During the 1948 election, we were praying for Truman. I know a lot about politics.
Frankly if I had paid more than are legally due I don't think I'd be qualified to become president.
So the Clinton-Gore era culminates with an election as stained as the blue dress, a Democratic chorus complaining that the Constitution should not be the controlling legal authority, and Clinton's understudy dispatching lawyers to litigate this: It depends on what the meaning of 'vote' is.
The election of Senator Barack Obama brought jubilation across Africa, where millions celebrated him as 'one of their own. '
Maybe the establishment has to get out too. I don't know. When you look at what's going on, Republicans have lost two big elections in a row. Big ones. And the last one with Mitt Romney should have been won easily. You know, you're going against a failed president. Barack Obama has done a horrible job; he's been a horrible president. And he was just as bad four years ago, and Mitt Romney should have won that election; and he didn't.
We deserve elections we can trust.
We have rigged the latest election. 93. 5 per cent have voted for Lukashenko. But they say it is not a European outcome. We have made it 86 per cent.
I think we can all agree this is a very important election [2016]. We don't want to see Hillary Clinton become the president of the United States.
This is in a nutshell, this is what's wrong with our media, and we see that really played out full in this election [2016], where this is undoubtedly the most toxic election that we've had in - certainly in my lifetime.
How do we get from electrons to elections and from protons to presidents?
No people ever recognize their dictator in advance. He never stands for election on the platform of dictatorship. He always represents himself as the instrument [of] the Incorporated National Will. . . . When our dictator turns up you can depend on it that he will be one of the boys, and he will stand for everything traditionally American. And nobody will ever say 'Heil' to him, nor will they call him 'Führer' or 'Duce. ' But they will greet him with one great big, universal, democratic, sheeplike bleat of 'O. K. , Chief! Fix it like you wanna, Chief! Oh Kaaaay!'
This was a big leak that WikiLeaks published, and it was hacking software developed by the CIA and the FBI that was able to leave fingerprints of other countries. So the CIA could hack our election to make it look like the Russians did it.
I have won elections and I have lost elections.
The Russians didn't hack the DNC servers. The Russians didn't interfere in the election [2016]. And if you get a Democrat in the know to sit down and honestly tell you off the record, they'll admit it.
