There is no more important issue than the purity of elections in this state, ... And I will tell ... the court that the elections are not pure.

It has to do with seeing God. “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God” (Matthew 5:8).

The special elections are always important beyond the individual races, ... because they provide a snapshot of the relative strengths of the message and an accurate assessment of the political environment.

There are only three elections, and they are obviously in very different parts of the state. But we, hopefully, will be able to glean some information from the results of these elections.

We have drawn lessons from the previous elections and we are cautiously optimistic that glitches will be reduced to a minimum.

Voters want to know that elections will be conducted fairly and accurately.
