North Dakota Governor: Kelly Armstrong (R)
Kelly Armstrong is a lifelong, devoted North Dakotan who grew up in Dickinson. He currently has the honor and privilege to serve as North Dakota’s lone member of the U.S. House of Representatives where he is a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, and the Select Committee on the Weaponization of Government.
Armstrong spent his childhood on baseball diamonds and wrestling mats. However, his true passion was and continues to be the outdoors. In the summers he can be found on Lake Sakakawea and during the fall, bow hunting in the badlands.
After graduating from Dickinson High School in 1995, Kelly attended the University of North Dakota and obtained a bachelor’s degree in 2001. He then attended UND law school, graduating in 2003. Kelly returned home to Dickinson during his college summers to coach the Dickinson Roughriders American Legion baseball team. While his teams found success on the field, Kelly is most proud of the successes his players achieved off the field. A passionate mentor, he still keeps in touch with many of his former players and enjoys watching them grow into successful adults.
