John McEnery (politician)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John McEnery (1833-1890) was a Louisiana Democratic politician who was considered by many to be the winner of the 1872 election for Governor of Louisiana. He was not allowed to take office by the federal government and local Republicans loyal to President Ulysses S. Grant. McEnery had been supported by a coalition of Democrats and anti-Grant Republicans (including Gov. Henry C. Warmoth).
