Early life and education

Legal career
After earning his Juris Doctor, he moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota where he practiced law for several years. He was then offered a teaching position at the University of Wyoming Law School where he taught for seven years.

Minge narrowly lost his campaign for a fifth term to Mark Kennedy in 2000. After his first election to the House, Minge opened a congressional field office in Windom, Minnesota at which point the Windom City Council declared March 20, 1993 as "Congressman David Minge Day".[4]
