In 1879, Mark Twain announced his candidacy for the US presidency, and published his satirical sketch “Campaign Promises”. As extracted in and noted by Lapham’s Quarterly, this sketch was published a year before the election of 1880, in which Republican James A. Garfield beat Democrat Winfield Scott Hancock with 214 of the 369 electoral college votes but only by a 0.9% margin of the popular vote—the smallest in American history till then. In 1906 he observed in “What Is Man?” that “fleas can be taught nearly anything that a Congressman can.”
