Rutherford Losey Decker (May 27, 1904 – September 21, 1972) was an American politician who was a longtime member and a Presidential nominee of Prohibition Party in 1960, and the president of the National Association of Evangelicals from 1946 to 1948.[1]
Decker was born in Elmira, New York.[2] He was a missionary at the American Baptist Home Mission Society, and preached in Fort Morgan, Colorado and in Denver, Colorado.[2] He also preached at the Temple Baptist Church in Kansas City, Missouri, until he retired in the 1960s.[2][3]
A lifelong resident of Missouri, he was nominated for President with party chairman Earle Harold Munn as his running-mate.
Decker and Munn finished fifth with 46,203 (0.07%) votes (and not one electoral vote). Munn succeeded Decker as a presidential nominee in 1964. They appeared on ballots in 11 states: Alabama, Delaware, Michigan, California, Massachusetts, Texas, Tennessee, New Mexico, Kansas, Indiana and Montana. Decker and Munn did not receive over 1% of the vote in any of these states.
He died in September 1972 at the age of 68.[4]
