Bombers and Ballot Wars

from Dakota Town Hall

Back again! This week on the show we’re loaded up with campaign energy as Jason Fleming jumps in on the District 35 race, Amber Hulse lays out her reelection case in District 30, and Wyatt DeJong joins the District 21 scrum. We get into the B-21 buildup, Ellsworth’s long-term economic ripple effect, the fight over whether West River is finally getting the infrastructure and defense investment it needs, and why Rapid City’s next phase of growth is becoming one of the biggest political stories in the state. Plus Amber breaks down the session’s late-stage chaos, anti-SLAPP protections, property tax relief, and how the governor’s race turned Pierre into a faction-on-faction psychological experiment. Plus we hit the opioid settlement tug-of-war between big-city impact and rural access, the prison rehab fight now bleeding into the governor’s primary, and the latest candidate shuffle as races lock in across the map. And of course, we close the only way Dakota Town Hall can with burger rankings, campaign trail banter, and enough primary-season side chatter to remind you South Dakota politics is fully in motion. @DakotaTownHall @Jakeshoenbeck @MurdocJ
