Enzenauer ran for a seat to the Alberta Legislature for the first time in the 1921 Alberta general election as a candidate for the United Farmers. He won a two way race in the electoral district of Alexandra with over 88% of the popular vote.[1]

Enzenauer ran for a second term in the 1926 Alberta general election. He fought a three way race to keep his seat. His margin of victory dropped but he still returned to office with a big majority.[2]

Enzenauer faced a two battle running for his third term in office in the 1930 Alberta general election. His popular vote increased, and he won a big majority over Liberal candidate F.H. Dunstan.[3]

Enzenauer ran for a fourth term in office in the 1935 Alberta general election but was defeated in a landslide by Social Credit candidate Selmer Berg. He finished a distant second in the five way race.[4]

gollark: The only difference between CPUs and VMs, really, is that CPUs are implemented on top of the ridiculously complex machine of the physical world.
gollark: Mostly, er, high distance over time.
gollark: See, if you have a known-secure VM model, you can go around skipping protection like, I don't know, memory protection stuff, since WASM is confined to linear memory and a few functions it has.
gollark: You know, people are looking at running WASM on CPUs to increase speed.
