Charles R. Imbrecht

Charles Richard "Chuck" Imbrecht (February 4, 1949 – January 19, 2000) was an American politician from Southern California.

He was reelected to a second term in 1980, but in 1982, he sought election to the California State Senate.

After a hard-fought and expensive campaign, he was narrowly defeated by Democratic state Assemblyman Gary K. Hart.

He was later appointed Chairman of the state Energy Commission, but resigned amid troubles with alcoholism.

On January 19, 2000, he died of a heart attack at his apartment in Pasadena, California.
