The election cycle refuses to die, and neither do the political fireworks. This week Matt Paulson and District 15 Rep. Eric Muckey join the show to break down the Sioux Falls mayoral runoff, city council battles, and the increasingly blurry line between \"nonpartisan\" elections and partisan reality. We get into turnout predictions, endorsement drama, dark money accusations, and why Sioux Falls voters are heading back to the polls again. Plus, the crew debates whether anybody actually knows who their city councilor is and what that means for local politics.</p><p>We also dive headfirst into the Republican gubernatorial runoff between Larry Rhoden and Toby Doeden, the fallout from Dusty Johnson's surprise loss, the role of negative advertising, and the growing influence of online political tribes. Along the way, there's plenty of convention chatter, speculation about statewide races, social media tough guys, dark money jokes, and a look at the Democrats' path forward. And of course, no Dakota Town Hall episode would be complete without a few burger recommendations and some good old-fashioned South Dakota political chaos.</p><p>@DakotaTownHall</p><p>@Jakeshoenbeck</p><p>@MurdocJ</p>","author_name":"The HomeSlice Media Group"}
