Thouret. Tit. III
The reason why an absolute majority is required is
pretty clear: it is that no man may be invested
with this important and busy office who is disagreable
to the greater part of the persons subject to his jurisdiction
as might be the case if there were several
candidates and a comparative majority in favour if
any one were made sufficient.
The requiring establishing as legal evidence of
title to this office a different sort of thing from
what is made requisite in the instance of the
other judicial offices, seems so much needless complication.
But the reason suggestive cause is to be found in the adherence
to the old ideas.
The provision article ordaining provision that the about the
King shall be King's being supplicated to consent thi to this diversity
is very civil, respectful but it is seems altogether useless, and it is
not in the incompatible with the character of a Law.
This article can will not, any more than the rest,
have passed into a Law without that I consent's having
been obtained. It must surely be an oversight It is seems rather superfluous We must surely place surely to the account of oversight the
ordaining that the King shall requiring the King to be supplicated to do what he an act which
must have done already.
