The voice of freedom. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1839-1848, 1844-09-12

On the first ballo, the Wing candidate
received l79- Liberty ll8-and the three
Democratic candidates III. Seven bal
lettings were had, and on the last, the votes
stood Wing 133--Liberty l06-Demo.
cratic 70. The highest votes were, whig
lS6-Liberty l33- Democratic ILL.,
Last year the highest votes were, Demo.
cratic l43-Liberty ll2-Whig 112 or
ia, showing larger vote this year than
the last, and comparative gain Of Wing
over the other votes. This will probably
not be so at the Presidential canvass, as
quite number who voted the Wing tick
ct, declare they shall vote the Liberty elec
toral ticket. This will undoubtedly prove
the case in other towns. Courage, then,
We who strive for right principles, for tho
your gam may be slow, victory is sure.
The voice of freedom. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1839-1848, 1844-09-12
Election Returns.

The returns have not as yet, reached
us from all the towns in the State. So far
as heard from, there has been greater
accession to the Liberty party from the
Democratic party, in the aggregate, than
from the Wing. Consequently, if the
Wing State Ticket is not elected by The
people, it will be the more likely to sue
