With the Noem announcement made that she’s going to be a candidate for Governor of South Dakota in 2018, that leaves an open congressional seat that already has a few people vying for it. The first and foremost name I’m hearing in the race is the man originally from the western plains of South Dakota. Specifically, the town of Ft. Pierre.
You may know him as Dusty. Dusty Johnson.
Keep your ears peeled. I hear there might be some things happening along those lines.
The most unsurprising news I’ve heard in awhile (that’s not a knock on you PP, just saying).
well in all fairness it has been a surprising week!
I just don’t see Dusty as the Congressman, he seems more like a Chief of Staff policy guy
Jordan Youngberg Congress 2018!!!!!!
He ran and had huge success in district 8!
The cowboy from toy story perhaps.
Yes, he’s no cowboy.
Heuther for dog catcher!
Oh, no no no. Think of the dogs!
Dusty is the man.
Dusty’s a nice kid, but he’s not a cowboy or a congressman.
totally agree….
Great guy.
It’s hard to take him seriously as a congressional candidate.
it’s easy to underestimate dusty until you come into direct contact with him. i still remember his testimony to congress on the so-called boxer bill, and how impressed many were with the way he of all the panelists delivered the clearest case against the bill, and the effect it would have on millions of people in areas like south dakota, dependent on traditional energy production sources. his easy facility with complex issues and demonstrable arguing skills are what a congressional leader needs to have.
Ya sure, know-it-alls are very popular and effective. Just ask any legislator how effective he was.
