I am Melissa Hull, candidate for South Dakota State Treasurer. I am a lifelong South Dakotan, a wife, a mom, and a volunteer. I care deeply about South Dakota and its people. I believe in doing things right and being a good steward of the resources entrusted to us.
For more than seven years, I have had direct, hands-on experience doing the work of the South Dakota State Treasurer’s Office. Since 2019, I have worked alongside outgoing State Treasurer Josh Haeder and learned the responsibilities of this office from the inside. I understand the day-to-day operations, the importance of checks and balances, the responsibility of protecting taxpayer funds, and the processes that make the State Treasurer’s Office work for all South Dakotans.
Government should continually look for ways to do its job better. I value institutional knowledge, but I also believe in continual improvement.
My experience is directly connected to the job I am asking voters to entrust to me. I understand what this office does, why it matters, and the responsibility that comes with handling public resources. I am prepared to build on the success of this office while looking for opportunities to make it even better.
South Dakotans deserve a State Treasurer who can walk into the office on Day One, protect what has been built, identify opportunities to improve it, and serve every South Dakotan.
That is what I am prepared to do.
