Mike Knudson, son of former Republican Senate Majority Leader, Dave Knudson and former Sioux Falls City Councilor De Knudson, announced that he has filed petitions to run as a Democrat for a District 12 House seat to serve in the South Dakota legislature.
“Government’s first job is building a better future for our citizens,” says Knudson. “Education and economic development are the keys to that better future. Today more than ever, our children need legislators who are genuinely committed to a better education for our kids. I am committed to improved education as my number one priority.”
Mike is a lifelong South Dakota resident who was born and raised in Sioux Falls. He graduated from Washington High School in 1998 and earned his Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from the University of South Dakota in 2002. Currently, Mike works for a Sioux Falls based healthcare system. His wife, Kylie, is an Elementary School teacher, and his son Carson is a first grader in the Harrisburg School District.
