Answer 2

Tammany Hall was a corrupt political machine of the late 1800s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tammany Hall was an American political machine within the New York City Democratic Party, which had a major influence on city politics during the period from the 1790s up to the 1960s. The organization had the power to actually stand for nominations in the party, including the election of the mayor and the appointment of other political offices.

The organization was founded as the Tammany Society on May 12, 1789. It had a social function from the beginning, but the activities eventually came to include politics, initially organizationally separate from the Society.

The first political victory for Tammany was at the presidential election in 1800, with Aaron Burr, the leader of the political branch, with the organization's help securing the post of vice president.

In 1830 the organization set up a new headquarters and this was called Tammany Hall. Soon after, this name became synonymous with the organization.
