Charles King won election with 234,000 Votes When registered Voters were 15,000

Charles D. B. King, 17th President of
Liberia (1920-1930),
King was stiffly challenged in the presidential election
of 1927 by Thomas J.R. Faulkner. According to an
official statement, King received 234,000 votes;
however, Liberia had 15,000 registered voters at the
time. Thus won King the dubious achievement of being
listed in the Guinness Book of Records for the most
fraudulent election reported in history.
