Question: In which state did John Flammang Schrank from New York attempt to assassinate Republican president Theodore Roosevelt in October 1912?

 He also served as the 25th Vice President of the United States from March to September 1901 and as the 33rd Governor of New York from 1899 to 1900.  As a leader of the Republican Party during this time, he became a driving force for the Progressive Era in the United States in the early 20th century. Theodore Roosevelt Jr. ( ; October 27, 1858 – January 6, 1919) was an American statesman, author, explorer, soldier, naturalist, and reformer who served as the 26th President of the United States from 1901 to 1909.  His face is depicted on Mount Rushmore, alongside those of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln. <SEP> The United States presidential election of 1912 was the 32nd quadrennial presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 5, 1912.  The election was a rare four-way contest.  Incumbent President William Howard Taft was renominated by the Republican Party with the support of its conservative wing.  After former President Theodore Roosevelt failed to receive the Republican nomination, he called his own convention and created the Progressive Party (nicknamed the “Bull Moose Party”).  It nominated Roosevelt and ran candidates for other offices in major states.  Democrat Woodrow Wilson was finally nominated on the 46th ballot of a contentious convention, thanks to the support of William Jennings Bryan, the three-time Democratic presidential candidate who still had a large and loyal following in 1912.  Meanwhile, the Socialist Party of America renominated its perennial standard-bearer, Eugene V. Debs.  It is the last election in which a former, or incumbent, President (Roosevelt) ran for the office without being nominated as either a Democrat or Republican.  It is also the last election in which an incumbent president running for re-election (Taft) failed to finish either first or second in the popular vote count. <SEP> Nicholas Roosevelt (June 12, 1893 – February 1982) was an American diplomat and journalist.  A member of the Roosevelt family and first-cousin once removed of U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt, he was born in New York City to James West Roosevelt, a brother of Hilborne Roosevelt, and Laura Henrietta d'Oremieulx.  Brought up in Oyster Bay, New York, he graduated from Harvard University in 1914.  He was an attaché at the American Embassy in Paris, secretary to the American mission to Spain in 1916 and 17, vice-governor of the Philippine Islands in 1930, and U.S. minister to Hungary from 1930 to 1933.  He was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and a writer for its journal "Foreign Affairs", and a foreign correspondent and editorial writer for the New York Times and New York Herald Tribune from 1921 to 1946.  A prolific author, his autobiography, "A Front Row Seat" (1953), offers a critical view of Franklin D. Roosevelt, a distant cousin, and an inside view of the New York Times.  "Theodore Roosevelt" (1967) drew on Nicholas Roosevelt's unique childhood recollections, his father having been a close friend of Theodore.  He was married to Tirzah Gates, the daughter of California State Senator Egbert Gates.  Her sister, Dorothy Gates, was the first wife of eminent astrophysicist Fritz Zwicky.  He remained lifelong friends with Fritz Zwicky.  He lived in Big Sur, California in later life. <SEP> John Flammang Schrank (March 5, 1876 – September 15, 1943) was a resident of New York, best known for his attempt to assassinate former U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt on October 14, 1912, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
