Zygmunt Marek (born March 17, 1872 in Kraków, died 1931 in Kraków) was a Polish socialist politician. After graduating from Gimnazjum Św. Jacka he studied law. He joined Polish Social Democratic Party of Galicia (PPSD) in 1890. Marek was a chief editor of ''Więzien polityczny'' (Politician prisoner) and ''Naprzód'' (Forward) newspapers during World War I. In 1919, after Poland regained independence after years of partitions, he joined united Polish Socialist Party (PPS). Elected Sejm member the same year, he became chairman of the PPS caucus, replacing Norbert Barlicki in 1926. On July 31, 1926 he placed a candidacy of Józef Piłsudski for President. Piłsudski was elected by National Assembly for this post, but decided against taking office. In that case PPS drafted their own candidate in next election, held on June 1, and Marek became a nominee. He faced Piłsudski-backed chemistry professor Ignacy Mościcki and Poznań Voivode Adolf Biński, who represented right. In first turn he took last place with 56 votes (against 215 for Mościcki and 211 for Biński). In a runoff he finished last again, with just one vote (Mościcki defeated Biński 281 to 200). Marek served as a Sejm Vice-Marshal from 1928 to 1931. ==See also== * Polish presidential elections, 1926 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zygmunt Marek」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
