What reading level is The Connecticut Constitution book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The political managers who undertake to run conventions sometimes for love or hate and sometimes for more material considerations, want to be able to stick unpopular men on the ticket, if it seems worth their while. With the majority regulation this can be done; with the plurality rule in effect an objectionable candidate would have to take the conse- quences and go under. Hence the machine for this reason also was against the amendment, and the amendment is dead. " Prof. McCook, of Trinity Col...lege, in an article in the September Forum, 1894, said: CIVIC CORRUPTION. 65 "Careful investigation shows that an average of over 15 per cent, of the votes of Connecticut electors can be purchased. '' The following letter written in 1895 to Prof. McCook by ex-Governor Thomas M. Waller, is to the same point : Office of Waller & Wagner, 45 Wall Street, New York, Feb. 20, 1895. "My Dear Sir: My attention has been called to your remarks yesterday before the judiciary committee in the Capitol in regard to corrupt elections in Connecticut, and also to the allusion by you and others to my statement made two years ago that there was spent in the presidential campaign of 1892 in our state more than $100, 000 by democrats and probably as much more by the republicans, and that two-thirds, if not more, of those amounts were expended in ways, that would not be approved of in a corrupt practices act, or approved of by the great body of either of the political parties.
