Marshall Selberg to Announce Candidacy for Sioux Falls Mayor
Marshall Selberg, a proven community leader, former City Council member, and small business owner, will officially announce his campaign for Mayor of Sioux Falls on Wednesday, October 15 at 4:00pm at The South Dakota Military Heritage Alliance, 1600 Russell St., Sioux Falls, SD 57104.
He is emphasizing a platform focused on unity and expertise to drive the city forward.
“It is my great honor to run for Mayor of Sioux Falls because I believe our city’s best days are ahead—if we work together to make them happen,” Selberg stated.
The campaign’s core message centers on Selberg’s track record as a “bridge builder and problem solver” dedicated to bringing diverse people and personalities together to achieve common goals.
Selberg brings eight years of government experience as the City Council representative for the Southwest District, where he served in various leadership roles including three years in Council Leadership, including two of those as Council Chair. As a real estate business owner for 18 years who has served in various roles in community organizations, including 15 years as a Chamber of Commerce Diplomat Emeritus, Selberg possesses a deep understanding of the local economy, job creation, and managing sustainable growth.
“I’ve always believed that life begins when we begin to serve, and the strong desire to serve the people of Sioux Falls has stayed with me,” Selberg said.

WHY????
I don’t know anyone who was clamoring for this and I consider myself pretty plugged in to city politics. I’ve heard silly clamoring for a “CEO” or “business leader”, but Selberg doesn’t fit that mold. I don’t know anyone who wasn’t sold on Christine who will think “Yes, THAT’S what I’ve been holding out for”.
This is just an unnecessary speed bump (and that’s all it is) for Christine.
Can’t imagine what his path to victory might be.
I second both of the above. This is just a bump in the road for Christine as she cruises to victory.
I’m interested in learning more about all he accomplished while on the council… absolutely nothing comes to mind.
Selberg was the emptiest of suits serving on City Council.
This is the candidate I’ve been waiting for!!! Said nobody anywhere.
“The campaign’s core message centers on Selberg’s track record as a ‘bridge builder’ …”
LOL! Poor choice of words upon which for Selberg to base his campaign.
The only bridge building with which Selberg is associated is one with at least a $10 million cost over run – the reconstruction of the 6th Street bridge at the behest and time schedule dictated by one of the Sioux Falls TIF Queen developers.
Ya’, Marsh another fiscal fiasco during your tenure on City Council and which has your fingerprints on it. More bones chattering from those skeltons in your closet.
