It matters not for whom anyone votes; what does matter is who counts the votes.

Indeed. LBJ won his first elections thanks to the George Paar machine in South Texas, which voted dead people, Mexicans (alive and dead) and imaginary people. (Sound familiar?) The worst thing is, they weren't even secretive about it - pretty much everyone knew, and government employees were told to shut up, say nothing and look away. Nothing much has changed.
