The Outsider's Closing Argument

from Dakota Town Hall

Back again! With less than two weeks until Republican voters decide South Dakota's next governor, Toby Doden joins Dakota Town Hall for an extended conversation on the runoff, laying out his case against Larry Rhoden and making the pitch that South Dakota needs a business-minded outsider in the Governor's Office. We get into affordability, property taxes, public safety, education, the Kelo poll, campaign strategy, and why Doden believes the race is much closer than public polling suggests. Plus, Senator Taffy Howard weighs in on why she's backing Doden and where she sees the biggest differences between the two candidates. We also hit the future of the Republican Party after the runoff, speculation surrounding Doden's lieutenant governor pick, Dusty Johnson's role in the race, and whether South Dakota Republicans can come back together after a bruising primary. And of course, the crew wraps with thoughts on Sioux Falls' mayoral race, campaign momentum, and what to watch during the final stretch before voters head to the polls. @DakotaTownHall @Jakeshoenbeck @MurdocJ Hosted on Acast.
