Talk:Earle B. Mayfield

Democratic Party
I am concerned that the article refers to the Democratic Party of the subject's political era as the predecessor to today's Republican party. 2605:A601:AB04:2700:50A7:5E4D:2991:B726 (talk) 22:24, 28 November 2021 (UTC)

Potential inaccuracies in KKK Association
Does anyone have the actual text of the sources that are being cited to support the claim that the KKK helped Mayfield get elected to the Texas Senate in 1907? Because according to most accepted history there WAS no KKK in 1907-1913 when he served in the Texas Senate, the first KKK had died out by the end of Reconstruction, and the second KKK would not be founded until 1915. 2600:1700:12C8:10:2C40:CEED:8CD5:FD31 (talk) 18:01, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
