I think Detroit Mayor might be the record, between the Blacks, and before them Poles and Irish.

That would make sense, given the way whoever wins the endorsement of organized labor is pretty much elected Mayor by default there.

I actually did a quick check on the internet, though, and discovered this:

Cobo, Albert E. (1893-1957) of Detroit, Wayne County, Mich. Born in Detroit, Wayne County, Mich., October 2, 1893. Republican. Mayor of Detroit, Mich., 1950-57; died in office 1957; candidate for Governor of Michigan, 1956. Died September 12, 1957. Interment at Woodlawn Cemetery, Detroit, Mich.

So Chicago's had 'RAT rule for at least 27 years longer (Chicago hasn't even had a Republican come CLOSE to winning since the late 50s!) They are truly hopeless braindead voters.

Scary, isn't it?
