Kristi Noem Biography

Kristi Noem is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on November 30, 1971 in Watertown, United States. Kristi Lynn Noem (/n oʊ m / ; née Arnold, November 30, 1971) is an American politician serving as the 33rd and current governor of South Dakota since 2019. A member of the Republican Party, she was the U.S. Representative for South Dakota’s at-large congressional district from 2011 to 2019 and a member of the South Dakota House of Representatives from 2007 to 2011. Noem was elected governor in 2018 and is South Dakota’s first female governor.

Noem served for four years, from 2007 to 2010; she was an Assistant Majority Leader during her last year. In 2009 and 2010 she sponsored bills to lower the age of compulsory education in South Dakota to 16, after it had been raised to 18 in 2008, arguing that requiring school attendance until age 18 has not been proven to improve graduation rates. Supporters of the higher age argue that it increases graduation rates and motivates students who would otherwise drop out.

Noem’s opponent, incumbent Democratic U.S. Congresswoman Stephanie Herseth Sandlin, emphasized her own record of independence from the Democratic caucus, including her votes against health care reform, the Wall Street bailouts, and the cap-and-trade energy bill. In response, Noem repeatedly highlighted Herseth Sandlin’s vote for Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House. According to The Washington Post, “Nationally, Herseth Sandlin [was] considered a rising star in her party, the Democrats’ own “mama grizzly” straight out of the heartland […] but, 2010 is a different time, and Herseth Sandlin, 39, faces her most serious threat yet. Noem, 38, is … a made-for-Fox News star in her own right.” During the 2010 election cycle, Noem outraised Herseth Sandlin, $2.3 million to $2.1 million. Noem received 84% of her cash from individual donors while Herseth Sandlin received 56% from political action committees. Noem defeated Herseth Sandlin, 48% to 46%.

In 2010, Noem ran for South Dakota’s at-large seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. She won the Republican primary with a plurality of 42% of the vote against South Dakota Secretary of State Chris Nelson and State Representative Blake Curd. Her primary opponents endorsed her in the general election.

In 2006, Noem won a seat in the South Dakota House of Representatives representing the 6th District (comprising parts of Beadle, Clark, Codington, Hamlin, and Kingsbury counties, but not including Watertown). In 2006, she won with 39% of the vote. In 2008, she was reelected to a second term with a plurality of 41%.
