I was a Democrat "Numbers Runner" in the 1964 election. My cousin was the runner for the Republicans. As the numbers were tabulated at the precinct HQ, at the courthouse, we were given the numbers to take to the Western Union operator at the newspaper office and they would make sure that the numbers my cousin and I had and the number called in from the courthouse were the same before sending them to Oklahoma City. I was in bed shortly after midnight.
