William A. Sulzer became Governor of New York on January 1, 1913. His governorship ended in scandal on October 18 of that same year, when he was impeached from office for illegal use of campaign funds. Sulzer's trial and impeachment were considered a direct result of his defiance of Tammany Hall boss Charles F. Murphy, over the issue of direct primaries.
