Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

“An application of an independent candidate for a place on the general election ballot must comply with the mandatory provisions of V.A.T.S. Election Code_ Each signature on the application must be accompanied by the signer’s address, the number of his voter registration certificate, and the date of signing it. The omission of any one of these items is fatal to that signature.”
