Abraham Lincoln was urged by some aides to suspend the election of 1864 - during the US Civil War - but despite the expectation that he would lose, he refused.

"The election is a necessity," Lincoln said. "We cannot have a free government without elections; and if the rebellion could force us to forgo, or postpone, a national election, it might fairly claim to have already conquered us."

This snip is from a BBC article. It is quite remarkable how the ruling junta has already got us talking about this possibility like it should even be considered.

Remarkable.
