Richard Harmon Fulton (b. 1927) is a Democratic politician who served as
a member of the Tennessee State Senate and of the United States House of
Representatives, and the second mayor of the Metropolitan Government of
Nashville and Davidson County. In 1954, Fulton was elected to the
Tennessee State Senate in place of his brother Lyle, who had died suddenly
shortly after receiving the Democratic nomination for that post. Fulton was
sworn in on January 3, 1955. However, he had not yet turned 30, and his election
was challenged. The Senate voted unanimously (28-0) to unseat Fulton. He ran
for the position again in 1956, and this time was of age and seated. He was
reelected in 1958, then left politics to begin a career in real estate. He
later ran for governor in 1978, finishing third in the Democratic primary.
