Don’t laugh Who is it? You used to work on the same staff (What?) it… What did people say about close elections? Take a look at the Philadelphia Aurora, an organ of Jefferson’s party, edited by William Duane (a printer whom Federalists had pursued, unsuccessfully, for sedition in 1799). The edition of October 14, 1800, tells you that your choice lies between “Things As They Have Been” (under Adams): The principles and patriots of the Revolution condemned. The Nation in arms without a foe, and divided without a cause. The reign of terror created by false alarms, to promote domestic feud and foreign war. A Sedition Law. An established church, a religious test, and an order of Priesthood. And “Things As They Will Be” (if Jefferson is elected): The Principles of the Revolution restored. The Nation at peace with the world and united in itself. Republicanism allaying the fever of domestic feuds, and subduing the opposition by the force of reason and rectitude. Jill Lepore, Party Time: Smear tactics, skulduggery, and the début of American democracy, The New Yorker, September 17, 2007 The same week, Philadelphia’s Federalist paper, the Gazette of the United States, offered a still more emphatic judgment: THE GRAND QUESTION STATED At the present solemn and momentous epoch, the only question to be asked by every American, laying his hand on his heart, is: “Shall I continue in allegiance to GOD—AND A RELIGIOUS PRESIDENT; Or impiously declare for JEFFERSON—AND NO GOD!!!” Jill Lepore, Party Time: Smear tactics, skulduggery, and the début of American democracy, The New Yorker, September 17, 2007 The rise of machine politics: Tammany Hall Aaron Burr DeWitt Clinton Tammany Hall in the mid-19th century Thomas Nast (1840-1902).

Mr. Nader won just 3 percent of the nationwide vote, but his totals in the closely contested states of Florida, Oregon and New Hampshire were well above the margins there between Mr. Gore and Gov. George W. Bush. Pre-election polling around the country had found that if Mr. Nader were not in the race, perhaps half his supporters would back Mr. Gore; others had said they did not know what they would do in the event of a Nader-less race, though some said they would vote for Mr. Bush. With the race hanging in the balance today as ballots were counted in Oregon, recounted in Florida and studied in New Hampshire, where Mr. Bush was already declared the winner, staunch Democrats and their liberal allies attacked Mr. Nader for having refused to bow out of the race weeks ago.

    STATISTICS: HISTORY 677 HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY IN WISCONSIN History — On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state in the Union, but the state’s written history dates back more than 300 years to the time when the French first encountered the diverse Native Americans who lived here. In 1634, the French explorer Jean Nicolet landed at Green Bay, reportedly becoming the first European to visit Wisconsin. The French ceded the area to Great Britain in 1763, and it became part of the United States in 1783. First organized under the Northwest Ordinance, the area was part of various territories until creation of the Wisconsin Territory in 1836. Since statehood, Wisconsin has been a wheat farming area, a lumbering frontier, and a preeminent dairy state. Tourism has grown in importance, and industry has concentrated in the eastern and southeastern part of the state. Politically, the state has enjoyed a reputation for honest, efficient government. It is known as the birthplace of the Republican Party and the home of Robert M. La Follette, Sr., founder of the progressive movement. Political Balance — After being primarily a one-party state for most of its existence, with the Republican and Progressive Parties dominating during portions of the state’s first century, Wisconsin has become a politically competitive state in recent decades. The Republicans gained majority control in both houses in the 1995 Legislature, an advantage they last held during the 1969 session. Since then, control of the senate has changed several times. In 2009, the Democrats gained control of both houses for the first time since 1993; both houses returned to Republican control in 2011.
