    Random fact: It usually takes up to an hour for election results to generate. During this time, the "Next Election" date is put forward a month, which is confusing. Do not worry! In a short time, the election result will generate and the "Next Election" date will then correct itself.

    Random quote: "A Bill of Rights that means what the majority wants it to mean is worthless." - Antonin Scalia
