Edward William Christiansen Jr. (February 2, 1914 – March 28, 2000) was an American politician who served as a state representative and lieutenant governor in Montana.
On February 24, 1914, Edward William Christiansen Jr. was born to Edward William Christiansen and Mabel C. Cork in Fargo, North Dakota.[1] After graduating from North Dakota State University he married Hattie James on December 27, 1947, and moved to Hardin, Montana .[2]
In 1964, he was elected to the Montana House of Representatives after defeating Republican Sam Denny and also served as one of Montana's presidential delegates to the 1964 Democratic National Convention .[3] [4] In 1971, the Democratic caucus in the House elected him as the House Minority Leader.[5]
Although he was initially interested in running for governor in the 1972 election , he later chose to run for lieutenant governor after incumbent Lieutenant Governor Thomas Lee Judge announced that he would run for the governorship.[6] Christiansen won the lieutenant gubernatorial election, but announced in 1976 that he wouldn't seek reelection and rejected a draft movement that attempted to have him primary Governor Thomas Lee Judge.[7] [8] During the 1980 Democratic Party presidential primaries he endorsed Senator Ted Kennedy .[9]
On March 28, 2000, Christiansen died in Helena, Montana.[10]
