  • John Hollis Bankhead II (July 8, 1872 – June 12, 1946) was a U.S. senator from the state of Alabama. Like his father, John H. Bankhead, he was elected three times to the Senate, and like his father, he died in office. He served in the Senate from March 4, 1931, to his death on June 12, 1946. He was first elected to the Senate in 1930 by defeating J. Thomas Heflin, the man who succeeded his father. Though Bankhead won the election by 20 points, Heflin challenged the results for over a year. He served as chairman of the Committee on Irrigation and Reclamation. After his death, Bankhead was succeeded by George R. Swift, who was appointed to fill his seat until a successor, John J. Sparkman, could be elected. Bankhead is remembered as a spokesman for farmers and against civil rights for African Americans. (en)
  • John Hollis Bankhead II, född 8 juli 1872 i Lamar County, Alabama, död 12 juni 1946 i Bethesda, Maryland, var en amerikansk politiker (demokrat). Han representerade delstaten Alabama i USA:s senat från 1931 fram till sin död. Bankhead utexaminerades 1891 från University of Alabama. Han avlade 1893 juristexamen vid Georgetown University och inledde därefter sin karriär som advokat i Jasper, Alabama. Han var verkställande direktör för Bankhead Coal Co. 1911-1925. Han besegrade sittande senatorn James Thomas Heflin i demokraternas primärval inför senatsvalet 1930. Han vann sedan själva senatsvalet och efterträdde Heflin i senaten i mars 1931. Heflins anklagelser om valfusk ledde till en femton månader lång undersökning som Heflin betalade för men som förblev resultatlös. Bankhead omvaldes 1936 och 1942. Han avled 1946 i ämbetet och efterträddes av George R. Swift. Bankhead var son till senator John H. Bankhead och bror till talmannen William B. Bankhead. Skådespelaren Tallulah Bankhead var hans brorsdotter. (sv)
