First Republican candidate for Minnehaha County States Attorney has emerged

Pat Powers

This just popped up on Facebook yesterday:

Assistant City Attorney Paul Bengford is among the first Republicans to throw it out there that he has an interest in running for Minnehaha County State’s Attorney, after the resignation of Democrat Aaron McGowan from the office.

I’m aware of at least two more Republicans who are expressing an interest in the office, so expect that this election should have a fairly spirited contest in both June and November 2020.

You can see Bengford’s website/facebook page here.

  3. Just a suggestion maybe put the competitive races on the 2020 candidate list; I am envisioning this one, maybe some other States Attorneys or City Council races…just an idea

    1. I might. Its a pretty sparse list at the moment, but things should start to gel in the next couple of weeks as candidates get more active after xmas break.

  4. So? If he’s elected, will this personal Facebook page he started, and his kitchen then become a public forum that he can’t limit people from.. asking for a friend.
