Boss Tweed built his political machine, known as Tammany Hall, by leveraging a network of patronage, corruption, and social services. He gained support from immigrants and the working class by providing jobs, housing, and assistance in exchange for their votes. By controlling key political positions and using bribery and fraud, Tweed ensured loyalty and maintained power. His machine thrived on a combination of political manipulation and the systematic exploitation of city resources for personal gain.
