A LOT of people hated the Kennedys, the mob among them.

John Kennedy got elected President in part BECAUSE of the mob's influence. It seems pretty clear that Illinois was stolen on his behalf, swinging the election. There would have been a quid pro quo for such activity, but evidently Bobby reneged .... as he was known to do.

Not to sidetrack this discussion, but I have heard that Illinois had a lot of cheating on both sides, with the Democrats rigging things in Chicago and the Republicans doing the same in the south of the state.
