Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a deep dive into the history of Canadian contested elections during the era of elected bodies, from the 1824 Grenville Act to just before the 1841 Union of the Canadas. This meticulously researched text brings to light a fascinating exploration of the development of Canadian electoral law and the decisions that shaped it. The author presents over twenty primary source accounts of specific election disputes adjudicated by parliamentary committees between 1824 and 1841, each offering intriguing insights into the political and social issues of the time. These cases brought forward issues ranging from partisan Returning Officers, to allegations of rampant bribery, violence against voters, improper oath administration, and much more. Through an examination of the decisions made by the parliamentary committees that adjudicated these contested elections, this book sheds light on many of the legal and historical contexts surrounding the development of Canadian elections.
