Story told of LBJ when running in Democrat primary for Senate
Campaign workers told to go to cemetery and get names to get fraudulent votes
One tombstone was old and covered in moss - were unable to read name
When got back and reported that got all the names except
one LBJ told them to go back to the Cemetery and get the name
“That man has the same right to vote as any one else in that
cemetery”
The bridge that washed out in the Kingsland, TX floods this week was the one he built so Lady Bird could get to the grocery store. That bridge is also why Lake Granite Shoals was changed to Lake LBJ. Actually, the bridge was much needed by the community.
It should never have collapsed except for the incompetence of the river authority who failed, as usual, to drop the water level before the flood hit.
