Back again! This week on the show, the guys welcome Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Julian Beaudion for a wide-ranging conversation on his challenge to Senator Mike Rounds, the state of Democratic politics in South Dakota, education policy, Social Security, data centers, tribal consultation, and whether there’s an opening for a different kind of leadership in Washington. We get into voter frustration, campaign strategy, and what it takes to compete statewide in one of the reddest states in the country.
Plus, government reform advocate Joe Kirby returns to make the case for ranked-choice voting, open primaries, and ending expensive runoff elections. The crew debates election reform, turnout, and whether South Dakota is ready for a different system. And of course, they hit the Travis Ismay felony controversy, the latest twists in the Sioux Falls mayoral race, Don Jorgensen’s surprise endorsement, and Joe’s annual attempt to move the state capital out of Pierre.
