Max Galasinski

From 1891 to 1893 he was an apprentice pharmacist, and in the following nineteen years learned and practiced his father's trade of stonemasonry and sculpturing, building some of the best known monuments in Milwaukee, including the Kosciuszko Monument in South Side Park.

Galasinski was elected to represent the 12th Milwaukee County Assembly district (the 12th and 14th Wards of the City of Milwaukee), unseating incumbent Republican Ben Wiczynski (who actually came in third behind Socialist John Sobczak) and an independent candidate, after first winning a six-way Democratic primary.

[4] In the wake of his loss, he accepted the nomination as the Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin, but came in a distant third (behind the Republican and the Progressive) in a five-way race.

[6][7] In 1942, Galasinski ran (unsuccessfully) in the Republican primary for the right to oppose old foe Gawronski in the general election, losing to another former Democrat, Martin F.

[9][10] He sought the Republican nomination to face Gawronski yet again in 1946, but again lost in the primary, coming in second in a four-way race.
