Political career
Linda McCulloch began her political career serving the people of Montana as a representative in the Montana State House of Representatives, being elected to the position in 1994. She retained the role for six years. She then successfully ran for Superintendent of Public Instruction in the state in 2000 and was re-elected to the office in 2004. State law barred her from running for a third term, so McCulloch instead chose to run for Montana Secretary of State. She narrowly beat her Republican opponent, Brad Johnson, and officially took office in January 2009.
