Biographical Information: George L. Angstman was born in West Union, Minnesota on May 2, 1900, and later relocated to Princeton with his family in 1904. Angstman attended the Northwest College of Law in Minneapolis from 1919 to 1923, and began practicing law, first in St. Paul and later in Mora. In 1926, Angstmann was elected as a county attorney, a position that he occupied intermittently for a total of sixteen years, before running for the Minnesota House of Representatives as a Republican in 1956. He was reelected in 1958. Angstman passed away on June 6, 1978.

Transcript Summary: In an interview conducted on July 30, 1973, George Angstman discussed his political career in Minnesota. Angstman said he originally became involved in local politics through his work as a county attorney, which later prompted him to seek a position in the Minnesota House of Representatives. Angstman mentioned much of his legislative career concerned the issue of re-apportionment, which he believed, contrary to many of his fellow rural Minnesotans, ought to be determined by population rather than location. Despite his conservative background, many of his staunchest supporters were liberal DFL Party members. Lastly, Angstman referenced the then-ongoing controversy surrounding Watergate, expressing his anger at how that incident had damaged the reputation of the United States from an international standpoint.
