We study the sampling problem for ferromagnetic Ising models with consistent external fields. We show that the edge-flipping dynamics for a corresponding weighted random cluster model is rapidly mixing. Consequences include rapid mixing of the Swendsen-Wang dynamics and perfect samplers for both models.
