That’s how the nation got LBJ. The Mexican citizens voting in South Texas would vote for Satan if he promised them free stuff.
No Judge Parr from Duval County stuffed the ballet boxes in Duval, Starr and Zapata Counties. More people voted for LBJ in his first Senate race than there were registered voters in those counties and LBJ only won that race by 500 votes.
Not that Parr (who ran most of those counties even though he was only a JP) would not pay off the locals with county jobs and such.
