Extract

Gordon Tullock (PS: Political Science and Politics, January 2004, 2) states (about the 1960 presidential election) that:

“Illinois went for Kennedy by a margin smaller than the usual number of votes produced by the Chicago machine from graveyards and empty lots. Texas went to Kennedy by fewer votes than are normally cast by cattle in South Texas.”
