I bet there were a few of those posters tacked up around Norway, Mi, on this day back in 1936... William Lemke was one of those rare third party candidates, just looking for votes on that warm August 2nd day in the U.P. Hear more about it on Sunday's Day in History.

Progress report on last week's construction pictures of the Eagle River monument. They are apparently all done with the tuck-pointing and the stones and mortar joints all look great. The plaque has not been remounted yet... and they never did find the time capsule :o(

Have a good week :o)

Aw shucks, what a shame ~ I thought surely they'd find the time capsule this time.:(
Here's wishing you a good week too, Charlie!

From my reading, he's from N. Dakota, and got less than a million votes and no electoral votes.

Interesting how they have the 'halo effect' on his poster! Had never heard of Mr. Lemke before.....

Poor Billy Lemke. Try as he might he never got to live in the White House.

The poster looks a bit like Vice President Biden.


By D. A. (Midwested) on Monday, August 3, 2015 - 07:52 pm:

Or maybe California Governor Jerry Brown? Hmm.


By Shirley Waggoner (Shirlohio) on Monday, August 3, 2015 - 08:09 pm:

Biden? ----not enough hair. ;>


By jbuck (Jbuck) on Monday, August 3, 2015 - 09:29 pm:

Yes, now that you mention it, there is a resemblance to Jerry Brown.
