William Tweed came from humble beginnings. His father was a blue collar worker and William Tweed was a carpenter and a New York City fireman. As with many Irish immigrants to the US, they settled in New York City and became members of the popular Democratic Party, Tweed saw the Democratic Party as a way to move ahead in New York. He found ways to make friends with influential people in the City and he helped the Democratic Party when it was election time. He was a loyal party member. Often there were election fraud problems in New York elections and Tweed did his best to make sure his Party received as many votes as possible in various types of elections. He made his way in the ranks of the Party and found himself on the powerful New York City Board of Supervisors. He became the chairman and the Board was responsible for managing and controlling the day to day operations of the nations largest city. From that point on, he became a force in the city's politics and its very lucrative contracts that were awarded to builders.
