Timeline
Rebecca Otto (born July 9, 1963) is an American politician who served as State Auditor of Minnesota from 2007 to 2019.
In her first race for the Minnesota State House in 2002, she was defeated by incumbent Mark Holsten.
The seat then became vacant after Governor Tim Pawlenty appointed Holsten as Deputy Commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
A special election was held, which Otto won, defeating Republican nominee Matt Dean.
Affiliated with the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL), she served in the Minnesota House of Representatives from 2003 to 2005 and on the Forest Lake School Board.
Before entering politics, Otto was a science teacher and a business owner.
She lives on a farm near Marine on St. Croix with her husband, Shawn Lawrence Otto, a screenwriter, novelist, and science advocate.
She is the third woman to serve as State Auditor, the first female Democrat to be elected to the post, the first Democrat ever to be reelected, and the first woman to be elected to a third term.
In 2003, Otto and her husband, Shawn Lawrence Otto, were indicted by a grand jury on charges of knowingly distributing false campaign material, a misdemeanor.
Otto said the charges, derived from a complaint filed by Republican House Speaker Steve Sviggum, were politically motivated and baseless.
Her supporters included former Republican Governor Arne Carlson, who signed a letter criticizing the indictment as politically motivated and raised money for her defense.
In December 2003, the presiding judge dismissed the charges and struck down the campaign finance law being used in the prosecution as unconstitutional.
In 2004 Otto lost her reelection bid to Matt Dean.
In March 2005 Otto declared her candidacy for State Auditor.
After discovering hundreds of millions of dollars in errors made by Anderson, Otto won the 2006 general election by the largest margin of victory over an incumbent in 112 years.
In 2010, Otto was reelected to a second term in a rematch against Anderson by 25,483 votes.
In 2013 she became president of the National State Auditors Association and in 2014 was named one of 15 Most Influential Professionals in Government Auditing.
Otto led a successful school levy campaign in Forest Lake, and then was elected to the Forest Lake School Board.
In 2014 she was elected to a third term, defeating Matt Entenza in the DFL primary, 81%-19%, and winning the November general election with 52% of the vote.
In January 2017, Otto announced her intention to seek the DFL nomination in the 2018 election for Governor of Minnesota.
Her candidacy attracted international attention for its carbon fee and dividend policy to mitigate global warming.
In May 2018, Otto chose running mate Zarina Baber, an IT professional.
At the June 2018 state DFL convention, Otto did not receive the party's endorsement.
The following Monday Otto announced she would honor her commitment to withdraw from the race without the endorsement.
