Answer 2

Richard M. Nixon served at U. S. Representative of California's 12th Congressional District almost four years, from January 3, 1947 until his resignation on December 1, 1950. He was appointed to complete the term of U. S. Senator Sheridan Downey in December 1950 before beginning the following month the term to which he was elected. He served as U. S. Senator from California a little over two years, from December 4, 1950 until his resignation on January 1, 1953, after being elected U. S. Vice President. He served two full terms as Vice President, from January 20, 1953 to January 20, 1961. After losing the presidential election in 1960 and the Senate election in 1962, he resigned from politics and opened a law firm in New York.

He returned to politics in 1968 and was elected U. S. President in 1968 and 1972. He served as President a little over 5½ years, from January 20, 1969 until August 9, 1974, when he resigned to avoid impeachment regarding the Watergate break-in and cover-up.

The total time Richard Nixon served in elected offices was about 19½ years.
