Original Note:
Of 1500 racist Democrat leaders in the south (members of Congress, governors, judges) only 14 became Republicans. The claim of a switch is fiction. Just one segregationist Dixiecrat senator – Strom Thurmond – switched parties. https://www.chicoer.com/2019/04/03/letter-setting-the-record-straight-on-gop-democrats-switch/
