In addition, he was engaged for the Social Democrats as a municipal councillor and was mayor of the municipality of Maria Gail from 1931 until February 1934. The dissolution of the Social Democratic Party in February 1934 had the consequence that Anton Tuder was removed from his position as mayor. Due to his political engagement, he was imprisoned several times during the Austrofascist Dollfuss regime in 1936 as well as after the "Anschluss" in 1938. In early 1942, the acquittal was issued by the People's Court of Vienna, nevertheless he was transported to the concentration camp Mauthausen Gusen. Shortly afterwards, the family received the news that Anton Tuder had died on 27 August 1942 in the camp.

The street where Anton Tuder once lived was named after Anton Tuder on the initiative of the SPÖ municipal councillor Franz Prettner in the year 1978.
