Title: And you thought Robert Byrd had a long Senate career. Nothing compared to this Post by: Lincoln Republican on September 09, 2012, 05:04:49 PM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugh_Lawson_White
Senator Hugh Lawson White of Tennessee had some staying power! By the late 1830s, Jackson's allies had gained control of the Tennessee state legislature. After White refused their demand that he vote for the Subtreasury Bill, he was forced to resign on January 13, 1940. 1825-1940, 115 years. Nobody is ever gonna top that. This is according to Wiki. So it must be right. :) Title: Re: And you thought Robert Byrd had a long Senate career. Nothing compared to this Post by: Mechaman on September 09, 2012, 06:48:06 PM An incredible find!
