David R. "Dave" Munson was the mayor of the city of Sioux Falls, South Dakota from 2002 until 2010. Dave Munson was born in Sioux Falls in April 1942. He obtained his B.A. degree from Sioux Falls College and M.A. degree from Augustana College. For eight and a half years, he taught school. From 1977 to 1983, Munson worked as an independent insurance agent. In 1978, he was elected to represent Minnehaha County in the South Dakota State House of Representatives. In 1981, Munson became Republican precinct committeeman. From 1983 to 1984, he was House majority whip. Munson, a state senator for many years, retired from CitiBank in December 2001 after 20 years with the bank as its government affairs officer. Finance controversies took their toll on the mayor; and on February 2, 2006, the sixty-three-year-old Munson decided not to seek re-election. After dropping out of the mayoral race, his supporters convinced him to re-enter. This proved to be the correct choice for Munson who won by a small margin of just under 900 votes over the challenger Bruce Halverson. He left the office of Mayor in May 2010 due to term limits. He was succeeded by Mike Huether. Munson was the subject of a number of skits on The Caribou Show. He is a former member of the Mayors Against Illegal Guns Coalition. Munson's split from the group was well-publicized. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dave Munson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
