Historical Tidbit

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Gygax

According to his biography here, Gary Gygax, who more or less invented–or at least co-invented–Dungeons and Dragons, was a Republican poll monitor in the 1960 election, where he witnessed numerous “irregularities” that we can assume to be cheating, by Democrats.  He was offered–it does not say by whom–a scholarship to the University of Chicago, if he would keep his mouth shut.  He did not report the violations, but neither did he accept the scholarship.

It has long been alleged that Daley may well have thrown the national election by cheating in Chicago, which gave Kennedy Illinois.

It’s interesting to speculate how history would be different, if Nixon had won.  We certainly would not have had Johnson, and it’s unlikely that, if we had had “Vietnam”, that it would have played out incrementally, slowly, and at such high cost under Nixon.  Nixon did, I will remind you, win the Vietnam War, with General Creighton Abrams.  That victory was then crushed in the dirt and abandoned by Democrats who, for all intents and purposes, were the enthusiastic lackeys of the Communist dictators, invaders, tyrants, and sadists.
