Theodore Rudzinski

Theodore Rudzinski (January 5, 1857 - ?) was an American real estate and insurance agent from Milwaukee, Wisconsin who spent one term as a People's Party member of the Wisconsin State Assembly from Milwaukee County's Fifth Assembly district.[1]

Background

Rudzinski was born in Neumark, Marienwerder, Prussia on January 5, 1857. His family came to Wisconsin in 1859 and settled at Milwaukee on Christmas Eve, 1859. He was educated in St. Mary's parish school in Milwaukee, and graduated from St. Gall's Academy, Milwaukee, and Spencerian Business College of Milwaukee. He became a real estate, insurance and steamboat agent, and lived for seven months in Chicago.

Elective office

He served on the Milwaukee Common Council as alderman of the 12th Ward from 1883–1836, and was re-elected in April, 1886, for another three-year term. He was elected to the Assembly's Fifth Milwaukee County district (the 5th and 12th Wards of the City of Milwaukee) in 1886 for the session of 1887, with 1,705 votes to 832 votes for Republican D. W. Chipman, 759 votes for incumbent Daniel Hooker (who had served two terms as a labor Trades Assembly member but was now seeking re-election as a Democrat), and 18 votes for Prohibitionist J. Y. Wolf. He was assigned to the standing committee on public improvements.[2]

Rudzinski did not run for re-election. He was succeeded by Republican Henry Siebers.

gollark: If a tiny unmeasurability error leads to a problem, just correct it at a larger scale, and we don't have that.
gollark: Well, that and "somehow influencing everything in the universe is quite hard".
gollark: I figure the main problem is "unclear/disagreed-upon definition of evil" more than anything else.
gollark: How does quantum stuff come into this?
