Political career

Radstaak first ran for a seat in the

Strathcona South was abolished in the 1971 boundary redistribution, and Radstaak ran for re-election in the new electoral district of Edmonton-Avonmore in the election held that year. He was defeated by Progressive Conservative candidate Horst Schmid.[4]

Radstaak ran again in the 1975 general election and was again defeated by Schmid in a landslide.[5]
