THE IMPORTANCE OF ONE VOTE What good will one vote do?

ONE VOTE had a lot to do with a lot of things in our Country!

• • • • • • • • •

Thomas Jefferson was elected by ONE VOTE in the Electoral College.

Rutherford B. Hayes was elected President by ONE VOTE. His election was contested, and referred to an Electoral Commission. Again, he won by ONE VOTE. The man who cast that deciding vote was a Congressman from Indiana, who was elected to congress by a margin of just ONE VOTE. Just ONE VOTE gave the Statehood to California, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. Today, millions of people living in those states are Americans by just ONE VOTE. In 1960 John F. Kennedy was elected by a margin of 119,450 – less than ONE VOTE per precinct over the entire Nation.

In 1970 State House races in Rhode Island and Missouri were decided by just ONE VOTE. In 1982 a State House election in Maine, the victor won 1,387 votes to the loser’s 1,386 votes. Just ONE VOTE. In 2001 the Village of Mazon elected their new President by just ONE VOTE. In 2010 the Vermillion County Clerk was re-elected by just ONE VOTE. In 2016 a Board Member from Grundy County, District 3 was chosen by the flip of a coin. After the Canvassing of votes occurred, there was a tie for the third spot in that District. Just ONE VOTE more would have made the difference.
