The Argus Leader has a story on their website today regarding the South Dakota Democrat Party being zapped by the Federal Elections Commission for having screwed up finances under Ann Tornburg:
“Our leadership has entirely changed over. We’ve hired a new compliance lawyer and we have a whole new compliance process, so really everything has changed with how we do things at the South Dakota Democratic Party,” said Ehrmantraut, who was hired to lead the party earlier this summer. “We’re in a lot better spot when this infraction occurred several years ago.”

“Neither (Tornburg) or her staff were held to account for the mess, but the scandal still brought down at least three members of the state Democratic Party leadership who followed,” he said. “Hopefully, the scofflaws who were in charge of the Democratic Party at that time will not ask South Dakotans to trust them in elected office ever again.”
