Herman C. Schultz

Herman C. Schultz (July 24, 1860 - December 22, 1935) was an American civil servant from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who served a single four-year term as a member of the Wisconsin State Senate, towards the end of which he legally changed his name to Senator Schultz.

Schultz was born, in Wittenberge, Kingdom of Prussia on July 24, 1860, but during his infancy moved with his parents to Grabow in Mecklenburg-Schwerin.

He was appointed secretary of the city Election Commission in Milwaukee upon its 1911 creation, a position he would hold for the rest of his life.

[3] As secretary of the Milwaukee city election commission, he encouraged the adoption of tabulating machines to count votes.
