Les voix électorales, la collection Baby comme témoin de notre histoire politique (1792-1870).

Les nombreux scrutins qui ont eu lieu dernièrement ont suscité plusieurs réflexions tant en ce qui concerne les taux de participation que l’impact réel du vote individuel sur la sphère politique. Récemment, une commission spéciale de l’Assemblée nationale du Québec a parcouru seize villes pour consulter la population sur le mode de scrutin et la loi électorale. De fait, cette dernière a changé radicalement depuis 1792, année où a eu lieu la première élection parlementaire. À ce sujet, la collection Baby de l’Université de Montréal est une source d’information inestimable sur les mœurs électorales du 19e siècle québécois. Les pressions et les sollicitations dont les électeurs font l’objet, les stratégies adoptées par les candidats et leurs partisans, l’ambiance enfiévrée autour des bureaux de scrutin, tous ces éléments trouvent des exemples dans les documents disponibles. En plus de témoigner des vicissitudes du scrutin ouvert et public, ces derniers révèlent des aspects insoupçonnés de la culture politique de l’époque. Cette présentation se veut donc une exploration de la sphère politique de notre passé à partir des traces multiples offertes par la collection Baby.
