In the 1930 U.S. Senate election in [[North Carolina]], [[Josiah Bailey]] defeated incumbent Democrat insurrectionist Furnifold Simmons in the primaries and, in the general election facing Republican George Pritchard, purportedly won by over 100,000 votes.<ref name="1930 NC Sen">[https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/contested_elections/115Pirchard_Bailey.htm The Election Case of George M. Pritchard v. Josiah W. Bailey of North Carolina (1933)]. ''senate.gov''. Retrieved February 16, 2021.</ref> Pritchard filed a petition on March 3, 1931 to oppose the "official" results, charging that election fraud had given Bailey an unfair advantage. He specifically claimed that every one of the 1,800 voter registrars were tied to the Democratic Party to provide an unfair advantage for Bailey, that Democrat poll judges forced Republican poll watchers to stand from distances too far to observe ballot boxes, that intimidation of voters was present as well as the tampering of ballots.
