The illustration by Jack Davis is of Gene Talmage, Governor
of Georgia, from the book SOUTHERN FRIED by William Price Fox (1926-2015).
There are many folklores or stories about Eugene “Gene”
Talmage politicking in Georgia.
One is in one election he lost. He could not believe he lost. He probably thought the people counting the
votes cheated for his opponent.
His only proof was all the fried chicken eaten at his campaign
rallies.
I kind of reminds you of Trump’s proof doesn’t it?
