Known for her work to encourage voter participation, her tenure was one of the longest of any secretary of state in Minnesota's history.[1] In 1984, she unsuccessfully challenged Republican U.S. Senator Rudy Boschwitz, losing the election with 41% of the vote.[2] Growe was raised in Buffalo, Minnesota and graduated from Buffalo High School and St. Cloud State University. On August 18, 1956, she married James E. Kerr in Buffalo. That marriage ended in divorce. On June 16, 1965, she married Glen Harry Growe in Anoka County, Minnesota.[3] Before running for secretary of state, Growe was a member of the Minnesota House of Representatives from 1973 to 1974, representing the old District 40A, which included portions of Hennepin County in the Twin Cities metro area. While in the House, she served on the Crime Prevention and Corrections, the Education, the Judiciary, and the Metropolitan and Urban Affairs committees.[4] As a state legislator, Growe supported the Minnesota same-day voter registration law (the first in the country) and later, as Secretary of State, she worked to implement it. Since then, Minnesota has consistently had the highest voter turnout in the United States.[5] Growe is widely recognized as an expert on voting and elections, and has been selected to serve as an official election observer in various foreign elections.[6] She is also on the advisory committee for the Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Minnesota.[7] RecordsFiles documenting the activities of Joan Anderson Growe as Minnesota Secretary of State are available for research use. They include general and chronological correspondence, telephone logs, appearances, subject files, voter education and elections files, and State Board of Investment files.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sos.state.mn.us/home/index.asp?page=50 |title=Minnesota Office of the Secretary of State : List of MN Secretaries of State Since 1858 |publisher=Sos.state.mn.us |date=2009-01-06 |accessdate=2010-07-20}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://bobmeek.blogspot.com/2009/05/june-16-2009-joan-growe-endorsement.html |title=bobmeek: June 16, 2009 Joan Growe Endorsement Reunion |publisher=Bobmeek.blogspot.com |date=2009-05-30 |accessdate=2010-07-20}} 3. ^"Joan Growe: An Inventory of Her Papers at the Minnesota Historical Society," http://www2.mnhs.org/library/findaids/00043.xml 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.leg.state.mn.us/legdb/fulldetail.asp?ID=10219 |title=Minnesota Legislators Past & Present – Legislator Record – Growe, Joan R |publisher=Leg.state.mn.us |accessdate=2010-07-20}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sos.state.mn.us/home/index.asp?page=4 |title=Minnesota Office of the Secretary of State : Elections & Voting |publisher=Sos.state.mn.us |date=2010-02-07 |accessdate=2010-07-20}} 6. ^ {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20041222110836/http://www.senate.leg.state.mn.us/caucus/dem/MemberNews/2004/dist46/20030430_Scheid_Growe.htm |date=December 22, 2004 }} 7. ^{{cite web|author=JOHN EWOLDT, Star Tribune |url=http://www.startribune.com/lifestyle/18990649.html?location_refer=Lifestyle |title=At home with Joan Growe: Electing to relax |publisher=StarTribune.com |date=2008-05-17 |accessdate=2010-07-20}} 8. ^Joan Growe Files External links
