Turns out there were lots of different ways of holding elections,
rules have varied quite a bit, but the winner has always been the guy with the most votes.

Was pleased to see a not so distant relative named Weaver listed in 1880.

My favorite election in Texas was in 1952 when Democrat Alan Shivers beat Republican Alan Shivers.

It's interesting that even though the urban/rural divide is just a huge deal today, it doesn't show up on the map until Harris (Houston) and Dallas counties voted for Obama in 2008.

What was that giant county in the west in 1848, that had disappeared in 1852?

That's very interesting. I wonder what conclusions, if any, one could legitimately draw from that?
