In true Democrat tradition, Bilbo won the rigged primary election with 51% in a four way contest. The Republicans won back control of the Senate that year in the 1946 general election and refused to seat Bilbo as his comments about Democrat [[voter suppression]] to rig the election became more widely known. He died 7 months later, unable to take his seat, while the Senate was still investigating.<ref>http://www.mississippihistory.org/sites/default/files/bilbo.pdf</ref>

In 1948, [[Lyndon B. Johnson]] won an election for [[U.S. Senate]] from the state of [[Texas]] by [[Democrat_election_fraud#1948_Texas_Senate|stealing the election]], according even to historians sympathetic to him. Johnson ran against former governor Coke Stevenson; neither candidate won a majority of the votes in the election, which under Texas law forced a runoff between Johnson and Stevenson. Johnson then claimed an 87-vote victory over Stevenson in the runoff, which was fraudulent.<ref>See eg Robert A Caro Master of the ''Senate Means of Assent''</ref> Johnson's partner in [[crime]] in the election theft, [[Abe Fortas]], whom Johnson later appointed to the [[Supreme Court of the United States]] and was confirmed by a two-thirds majority of the Democrat Senate, is the only Supreme Court Justice to have resigned over corruption charges.
