North Dakota Democrats hire Robert Haider as new director

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s Democratic Party has hired Burlington native Robert Haider as its new executive director.

The party says it approved Haider’s hiring at a meeting in Bismarck on Saturday.

Haider will succeed Chad Oban, who has served as executive director since December 2012. Haider will start work on May 1.

Haider is a graduate of the University of North Dakota’s law school.

He managed Ryan Taylor’s unsuccessful campaign for agriculture commissioner last year. He also managed Corey Mock’s failed bid for secretary of state in 2010.

Haider has run successful legislative campaigns for Rep. Mock, Rep. Kylie Oversen and Sen. Mac Schneider.
