FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Doug Burgum still has to woo voters before Election Day — but a least he's got the girl.
A campaign spokesman confirmed Friday that the GOP governor hopeful is engaged to marry Kathryn Helgaas of Fargo. A wedding date hasn't yet been set for the couple, and additional details weren't immediately available.
Burgum is known in North Dakota for building Fargo's Great Plains Software into a billion-dollar business, which he later sold to Microsoft.
He defeated North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem in the Republican primary for governor.
The Fargo businessman faces Democrat Marvin Nelson in November.
