Noem Announces Run For Governor

U.S. Representative Kristi Noem

Congresswoman Kristi Noem is announcing her bid for governor in 2018.

The announcement comes just after Noem was re-elected to the U.S. House of Representatives.

Noem’s announcement ends speculation about her run for the state’s highest office.

Last week, State Representative Mark Mickelson announced he won’t run for governor.

If elected, Noem would be South Dakota’s first female governor.
