In 1932, New York Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt was campaigning for the Democratic Party's nomination for President. While the Democratic Convention in Chicago repeatedly deadlocked between Roosevelt and Congressman Joe Steele of California, the Executive Mansion in Albany mysteriously caught fire. Governor Roosevelt (rendered immobile by polio 11 years earlier) and his wife Eleanor were among those killed. With his primary opponent gone, Steele became the party's presidential nominee and won the election.
