That’s how LBJ won the primary election for Senate in Texas (when winning the Democrat primary guaranteed a victory in the general election). Initially he lost by more than 100 votes but then 201 ballots were found in one county giving him a victory by 87 votes. Landslide Lyndon. The voters who cast those ballots had voted in alphabetical order. But a maid “accidentally” threw the ballots away so the matter could not be investigated any further.

LBJ?

Ballot box 13 in Jim Wells County.

And they admitted it, but the election had already been certified.

The LBJ ballot stuffing scandal is called Box 13.
