Congressman Dusty Johnson holds huge fundraiser in Sioux Falls – 200+ in attendance

Congressman Dusty Johnson ‘s fundraising events are getting bigger and bigger in the run up to the fall election. And last night was no different with one of the largest host lists seen in recent years for a political fundraiser:

I’m counting 94 host couples at $2000 each, and 60 co-hosts at $1000 each. Plus key donors and attendees who aren’t on the list. That makes for a very packed room, and a massive haul for the Congressman who many believe may be running to be Governor in coming months.

A huge event, and unlike one person who was looking at challenging him for Congress, no self-declared nazis were invited.

Dusty’s actual Congressional opponent, Sheryl Johnson, is virtually invisible in the fall contest, and she’s not likely to be more than a speedbump at this point. Only a minor obstacle for a congressional campaign that will roar into the fall election, and begin the climb for a gubernatorial contest 2 years from now, much like his predecessor Governor Kristi Noem.

Stay tuned. Because Team Dusty has the wind at their back.

    1. It is good. There’s a number of working parents of young families, as well as business owners at various stages of their careers. I was thinking of going, but I was told there’s a Brookings event coming up, so I’ll likely hit that one.

  1. LOL! Yeah, wind at his back…

    Besides the corporate Republicans, the average voter is sick to death of Dusty. His entire political career has been about advancing himself up the political ladder, not representing everyday South Dakotans. People are fed up and resent that he’s already running for governor in 2 years. Even if Sheryl Johnson isn’t hauling in a ton of cash, she’s been out building a coalition of people fed up with career politicians that will topple Dusty and leave him wondering what the hell happened to his perfectly laid career plans.

      1. Where’s your reference? And they may say a lot more about the other pols in the poll…

  2. Has anyone polled a race between Jackley, Rhoden and Dusty?

    I still personally think Tenhaken is the dark horse in a governors race.

        1. No, he already has $4million he’s not spending on his Congressional race. He’s hoarding it all for his run for governor in two years.
