Starr Co., also down in the Valley, was where the Miracle of Ballot Box 13 occured where votes appeared the day after the election to give Lyndon Johnson enough votes to run for Senate...all part of the rotten history of that part of Mexico that we call Texas.

Actually, that occurred in Jim Wells County, which is significantly north of the Valley, and it was orchestrated by the white land baron politicians who ruled their counties as if they were independent countries.
However, it certainly was dead hispanic voters who cast the margin of victory for LBJ.
