1946 Senate race
Шаблон:Main After Senator John Thomas's death in 1945, Governor Charles Gossett, a Democrat, resigned and allowed his successor Arnold Williams to appoint him to the Senate vacancy, which in turn allowed him to enter the special election race as the incumbent. During the 1946 primary race, Donart was endorsed by Idaho's other U. S. Senator, Glen Taylor,[4][5] who had defeated him in the 1940 primary.[1]
Donart defeated Gossett in the Democratic primary,[6][7] but was defeated in the general election by Republican congressman Henry Dworshak.[8]
Personal life
Donart died at age 72 in 1961,[1] and is buried at Hillcrest Cemetery in Weiser.
