Regarding Nixon and the 1960 election, an interesting article. It does appear that Nixon behaved in an uncharacteristically statesmanlike manner, though I have little doubt that he did so with an eye to his image and future political hopes. washingtonpost.com A couple highlights: In Fannin County, which had 4,895 registered voters, 6,138 votes were cast, three-quarters of them for Kennedy. In one precinct of Angelia County, 86 people voted and the final tally was 147 for Kennedy, 24 for Nixon. And from a reporter who looked into the vote fraud: "I remember a house. It was completely gutted. There was nobody there. But there were 56 votes for Kennedy in that house." They don't hold elections like that anymore.
