Letter from Franklin D. Roosevelt to D. H. Mudge Sr. |
This is a letter from Franklin D. Roosevelt to Dick Howard Mudge Senior, a prominent attorney and member of the local Democratic Party. At this time Roosevelt was the Democratic gubernatorial candidate for New York. In the letter Roosevelt urges Mudge to support the Democratic Presidential candidate, Al Smith, in the upcoming 1928 election. Roosevelt extols the benefits of Democratic values, while denouncing what he calls the "crass materialism" of Republican Presidents Calvin Coolidge and Warren G. Harding. Roosevelt asks Mudge to write back his decision to his personal home in New York City. Smith went on to lose the 1928 election to Herbert Hoover, while Roosevelt was elected governor of New York. |

Letter from D. H. Mudge Sr. to Franklin D. Roosevelt |
This is a carbon copy letter from Dick Howard Mudge Senior responding to Franklin D. Roosevelt. During this period Roosevelt was the Democratic gubernatorial candidate for New York. In the letter Mudge, a prominent attorney and member of the local Democratic Party, discusses his decision to vote for Democratic presidential candidate Al Smith in the upcoming 1928 election. Optimistic, Mudge predicts Madison County will sway from its Republican voting tendencies to support Smith. Ending the letter, Mudge expresses gratitude for Roosevelt's communication and applauds his speech given in Houston at the 1928 Democratic National Convention. Smith went on to lose the 1928 election to Herbert Hoover and Republicans won the Madison County majority vote. Despite these Democratic loses, Roosevelt was elected governor of New York. |
