I believe my 'one vote' lists; National, by State, and Other; to be the most comprehensive
listing on the internet.
Actually it is not just 1 vote but is 1 vote
over or shy of a majority, or 'super-majority'.
Any one voter of the victory tally had the power to sway the
victory to a tie or the opposition. One vote is victory among many when the many have the
majority. - Roger W Hancock.
I have included where one vote each over several precincts could have made a difference.
"A nation is only an
individual multiplied." - Mark Twain,
"The Turning-Point of My Life"
Power
of one vote. |

1974 |
NH |
1 vote in two
precincts after the overturning of the results of a recount,
gave the victory of the New Hampshire Senatorial race to Louis
Wyman. After a year of court battles and
controversy, a special election was held and John Durkin won. |
2006 |
NH |
1 vote short, of the number needed to pass,
blocked a proposed state constitutional amendment that would
have given New Hampshire State authority to target school aid to
the neediest communities. |
2006 |
NH |
1 vote was the difference in a 2006 New
Hampshire House race that ultimately after challenges, was
decided by the House Assembly. |
2007 |
NH |
1 vote short in the New Hampshire Senate,
failed the passage of a bill to ban smoking in restaurants and
bars. - A poll showed that 79% of the state's residents
supported such a ban. |
