A self-taught man and editor of the Marshall County Gazette, he served thirteen terms as mayor of Lewisburg and one term in Congress (1943-1945) before he was elected governor. Taking on Edward H. Crump’s powerful political machine. McCord successfully pushed the first state sales tax, using the funds to improve the educational system, and provided retirement for teachers.
