Харви Л. Дайхольм (29 января 1910 г. - 29 мая 1980 г.) был американским молочным фермером и демократическим политиком. Он проработал 20 лет в штате Висконсин , представляя округа Полк и Бернетт .
Биография
[ редактировать ]Родился в городе Бон -Лейк, штат Висконсин , Дайхольм получил среднее образование в средней школе Luck и провел почти всю свою жизнь, работая на молочной ферме своей семьи. [ 1 ] Он стал ассоциированным с Висконсинской прогрессивной партией , отколовшейся фракцией Республиканской партии Висконсина, которая обладала значительной властью в штате в 1930 -х и 1940 -х годах. Но когда партия начала растворяться в конце 1940 -х годов, Дайхольм последовал за большинством прогрессистов в Демократическую партию Висконсина .
In 1945, he was elected town council chairman of Luck, Wisconsin, where he served for the next 14 years. He also became a member of the Polk County board of supervisors, and was chairman from 1957 to 1959.[2]
In 1958, he was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly, representing the Polk and Burnett district.[3] He defeated incumbent Republican Lowell A. Nelson, and went on to beat him in again in a close rematch in 1960.[4] He was reelected eight more times. He announced he would not seek an 11th term in 1978, and left office in January 1979.[5]
Dueholm was known for his defense of the University of Wisconsin, when it came under right-wing attack in the midst of protests against the Vietnam War, and for his advocacy for civil rights.[5] Although he never served in party leadership, he was extremely popular among his colleagues.[5]
Personal life and family
[edit]Dueholm was the eldest son of Marius Dueholm, a Danish American immigrant who came to Polk County as a child with his family. Marius Dueholm was also a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, representing Polk County for six years from 1931 to 1937.[6]
Harvey Dueholm and his wife, Hazel, had four sons together. Their son Robert would also serve in the Wisconsin State Assembly in the same district his father once represented.
Dueholm battled cancer for over 20 years before his death in 1980.[5] He nearly lost reelection in 1966 and 1968 due to voters believing he would die before the end of his term.[7] In May 1980, he underwent brain surgery to remove a tumor from his brain. He died from complications from the surgery a few days later, on May 29, 1980.[1]
Dave Obey, who represented northwest Wisconsin in the United States House of Representatives for 42 years (from 1969 to 2011), referred to Dueholm, who he served with in the Assembly, as his political mentor.[1] In a statement, Obey said, "Harvey Dueholm cared more about justice, fairness, and the rights of each and every human being to reach his or her full potential than any legislators with whom I have ever served. He had a sense of rage about injustice and hypocrisy and used it on many occasions to make his colleauges' votes match their conscience."[1]
