Pretty sure that the Minnehaha County GOP would be the ones to reinstate him. Or not. Since they’re the ones who selected him and all. But whatever.
Do Amy Wagner next. And Travis Ismay.
Now it’s time for him to permanently step back from elected office. He shouldn’t be elected to anything again if found guilty
Whats the over/under on Tom showing up for the state convention?
I think he already noted that he isn’t going. Kind of tough to get “free Tom” buttons made between now and Friday.
Is he still eligible for a floor nomination for AG?
Well Jake, we know you’ll never win an election. He has a better chance than yourself. So there’s that.
