Tuesday's Word: election
election (plural elections)
A process of choosing a new leader for a country where all eligible people cast a ballot to choose a leader or decide an issue. The majority rules and the new leader is the one who has the most votes. There are variants, such as the electoral college system of the United States, but the popular vote usually decides the victor.
Adjective
election (no comparative or superlative)
Pertaining to an election or elections generally.
Bloggers, please vote. The GOP has brought corruption, walked away from the Geneva Convention, and sent our jobs overseas. Change is overdue and this country must embrace the idea that long term planning doesn't mean next year's Superbowl.
