&lt;strong&gt;By Mark W. Olson&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The died-in-the-wool Republican city of Victoria is once again proving to be an interesting politically anomaly. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Ever since Victoria was incorporated as a city in 1915, it has voted in the majority for 18 Republican presidential candidates, letting only one Democratic and one third party candidate squeeze through its grip. And it hasn&#039;t let that happen since 1968.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
However, the staunchly Republican city of Victoria has hired at least two city administrators from other side of the aisle – Larry Bodahl and Steve Sarvi.
&lt;/p&gt;
