Who was Francis D. Winston?
Francis Donnell Winston was a North Carolina politician and judge who served as the tenth Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina from 1905 to 1909.
Francis Winston, originally a Republican, became a leading Democrat after objecting to the inclusion of African Americans in the political alliance between his party and the Populists. He helped lead the Democrats' "white supremacy" campaigns in 1898 —when he was elected to the North Carolina House of Representatives— and in 1900.
