In politics, dirty tricks refers to duplicitious, slanderous, and downright illegal tactics employed by politicians (or their underlings) to win elections and/or destroy opponents.
U.S. President Richard Nixon's staff employed them extensively via Donald Segretti, who went to jail over them. Lee Atwater was a great proponent of them, as is his protege, Karl Rove.
