   • 1974, United States Congress, Congressional Record: Proceedings and Debates:

     The defeat of Lester Maddox, whose try for a second term as governor was decisively blocked in the recent Georgia Democratic primary, confirms that “outniggering the opposition," as Wallace once put it, is no longer a sufficient strategy […]

   • 2000, Nick Cohen, “The Holocaust as show business”, in New Statesman‎:

     The PM's culpability will not stop him attending the ceremony; nor will the Asylum Act deter Straw from showing up. The Tories propose to outnigger him at the election by campaigning on a promise that refugees who are accused of no crime but asking for a safe haven should be locked up without trial in internment camps.

     As a federal judge in the 1950s, Wallace developed a reputation for fairness and tolerance—relative to the norms of Alabama at the time—and the NAACP endorsed his first gubernatorial campaign in 1958. But after his KKK-backed opponent trounced him in the race, Wallace confided to an aide, “I was outniggered by John Patterson. And I'll tell you here and now, I will never be outniggered again.”
