    Description

    1973 New York for Mayor Mario Biaggi Political Pinback Button 1 1/2" Celluloid.
    Mario Biaggi
    was a Congressman from
    NY serving from 1969 to 1988 and former NYC police officer. He retired from the force as one of the most decorated police officers in NYC Police Department history after being injured 11 times in the line of duty. He was elected as a Democrat from The Bronx. In 1987 and 1988, he was convicted in two separate corruption trials, and he resigned from Congress in 1988.
    In
    1973, he declared his candidacy for Mayor of NYC. He entered the Democratic primary, and also sought the Conservative nomination. Biaggi was a fairly conservative Democrat by New York City standards, and had received the Conservative nomination for Representative three times. Conservative Party leaders supported him and planned to make him their nominee regardless of whether he received the Democratic line. Biaggi lost the Democratic primary, but ran in the general election on the Conservative Party ballot line. He finished in fourth place and received 10.96% of the vote.
