They controlled the elections. In Baltimore in 1845 the political machine would round up the street people and take them to a fire station a few days before the election. They would hold the people there feeding them, giving them their drinks or drugs and on Election Day have them vote. Edgar Allan Poe was in one of these round ups just before he died. He signed in and voted.
