Hubbel IS looking at bringing the insanity to the 2018 Gubernatorial race

Pat Powers

I had hoped it wasn’t true, but Lora Hubbel IS looking at bringing her brand of insanity to the 2018 GOP Gubernatorial Race, as I’d feared:

Another Republican has emerged as a candidate for Governor in 2018.

Lora Hubbel, a Sioux Falls nurse, has set up an exploratory committee for her campaign to find out what South Dakota wants.

and..

Hubbel says she will be running on a platform of corruption killing. She says “if South Dakota want’s a change, I am your best bet.”

Read it all here at KCCR News.

Why do I say I had feared it?  You know how tough it is to convince people to vote Republican when you have someone as flat out nutty as Lora on the ballot?

She’s an anti-vaxxer, she has stated that government wants people to sleep babies on their back because it makes them more susceptible to mind control, that jet contrails are evidence of a plot to spray us with nefarious chemicals, that electronic highway signs may be “scanning our irises” for inclusion in a government database, Muslims are plotting pre-jihad at the Sioux Falls Airport, and the list goes on and on…

As I’ve said before, and I’ll say again – SERIOUSLY, WHO BELIEVES THIS STUFF?!?

There was a possibility that she wasn’t going to run as a Republican, as she’s ran as an independent in the past, and up until last month was chairman of the Constitution Party.  But it looks like she’s a Republican again… possibly “In Name Only,” since in the past she’s been happy to shed that label as quickly as a snake sheds it’s skin, as she continues her self-promotion.

And the 2018 election rolls on….

Update – In a radio interview you can listen to here, Hubbel blames state corruption on non-profits, and wants more government oversight of them. So, yes, she’s actually running on a platform of more Government

  1. Lora needs to find a secure Nuclear, Biological and Chemical protected bunker and just hide in there. Fearing this and fearing that. She should break off all communications too since the Aliens from Alpha Centuri have infiltrated our state government and will hack communication devices to locate those who try to expose this planetary takeover.

  4. After candidate for SD Governor Hubbel loses the SDGOP nomination is she then eligible to run as a Constitutional, Libertarian or whatever party as their gubernatorial candidate in the general election?

  5. Has she actually said that she is running as a Republican, or did KCCR just assume that because she ran as a Republican last time?

    1. She ran for Governor in the Republican primary and lost by 81-19%, so she went to the Libertarian convention and asked them to make her their candidate, but that was illegal. Then she sued to get on the ballot on the independent ticket when lt. Gov when the Independent lt Gov candidate withdrew, so the last time she ran for office was as an Independent. That got her kicked out of the GOP. Then she joined the Constitution party and became their state chair.

      This goes to show that a person has to stick with what they believe in.

      1. I’m really concerned for the 19% of Republicans that voted for her. They are in desperate need of help.

          1. Yes, there are two other people for the one year term. My neighbor John Doescher is a walk for the 3 year. I told John I’d trade him places. lol. Oh well, it will be interesting. I really think it is better to have competition and earn it.

            1. Curious if Mayor Toomey will get recalled. He was a huge mistake for Mitchell and if you two are serving in council chambers Mitchell will have a two ring circus. I suppose the a candidate forum could be held at the new Taj Mahal right? 🙂

              1. I doubt he will get recalled. They need 1450 signatures. A 2 ring circus? Jerry can run the town and I’ll run him.

      3. I never talked to any Libertarian to join their party…I ran with Mike Myers AS A REPUBLICAN!. I only went to CP when Matt Michels gavelled me down right before I was going to call in out (at the Republican Convention) that he was on the “HealthCare Exchange IMPLEMENTAION Committee” …advocating FOR THE OBAMACARE EXCHANGE. But there is no organized CP party and Im back to Republican…the only place for a conservative in SD. Both the CP and Rep Party have great pLatform

        2. Meyers is the Bomb! Amazing individual. Brilliant to pick Hubbel. No Health Care executive can hold a candle to Myers.

        1. Pat, she has done many things, Nurse, College Instructor, Broker and Realtor. Business Owner, Wife, Mom and Grandma…..not bad for insane.

          1. You forgot the claims she makes would fit in perfectly in articles for supermarket tabloids like the National Enquirer

            2. I have never gotten a flu shot and would not let my daughter get that HPV shot….no way. So I guess I am insane????? I have nursing friends that were forced to get the shot or they would be fired.

            3. I forgot these….

              …… no fewer than “8 shotgun deaths” are somehow connected to the GOED…


    4. Yes, she ran as a Republican in the primary against Daugaard, and she ran with Mike Myers as a Republican.

  6. Plenty of people in both parties believe everything’s a conspiracy. (My favorite: One-third of Democrats polled believe Bush had prior knowledge of 9-11.) No surprise that candidates with a conspiracy bent run for office. They almost always lose.

    1. Isn’t it a conspiracy where more then one person is involved like Mid Central Education and Gear-Up?

  7. They lose because there is a conspiracy against them.

    Ms. Hubbel may be insaner than most but she is a very attractive young lady.

  8. If the RINO Hubbel gets 2% of the vote I would be shocked. She is a person who got kicked out of the Republican Party. I would vote for a shoe before I would even think about voting for her.

  10. Fema camps? i don’t lose any sleep over fema camps. I lose sleep over SD not having any oversight over non-profits. We are one of only 6 states that have the “honor system” rather than the AG’s office taking charge. What happens to the non-profits like Gear Up, Dial Corp and all the others that are rife with corruption?
    I lose sleep over all the people sick with having to pay for Daugaard Care. We are the 3rd most ObamaCare compliant state in the nation for “meaning use” – the Orwellian segment of ObamaCare. I lose sleep over SD being a governing state for Common Core rather than just a particiapting state….the people hate common core and the Daugaard network just keeps pushing more and more aspects of it on SD. I like the hat, Pat…shows your juvenile side

    1. “I lose sleep over SD not having any oversight over non-profits”

      Why do we need more government?

      1. Actually Mike Myers sued and won in I believe circuit court for Lora to be his running mate……He was the anti-establishment candidate. Myers was over qualified to run for Gov……!00% anti establishment

  13. Lora Hubbel: “I lose sleep over SD not having any oversight over non-profits.”

    As someone who has served on at least 6 non-profit boards in the last 10-15 years, the last thing charities need is more over-sight. Every dollar spent on government compliance is a dollar that doesn’t go to the purpose for which the charity exists.

    Personally, I’ve lost more sleep over the reality charities never have enough money to meet the needs for which they are formed.

    1. The sad thing is that it’s going to add a carnival sideshow to the most exciting primary in 8 years.

      Lora Hubbel is a nut, period, and exclamation point, and represents not the Republican party, but the “crap my crazy uncle posted on facebook” party.

  15. Can I ask a question? Is the guy laying bricks at the house down the street a

    1) Freemason (are these the masons who aren’t union?)
    2) Slavemason (are these the masons brought here under human trafficking?)
    3) Unionmason (Are these Teamsters? Makes sense since they work with cement and put Hoffa in cement) or
    4) Non-Unionmason (is there a way to tell by looking at them and knowing they aren’t Free, slave or union?)

    1. Gideon, I will support Lora Hubbel because she is not beholden to big money, and the party elite. She is beholden to the people. I just wish Pat would interview her and ask her what ever question he wants. She has a big heart and truly wants people to have a good quality of life without having the stresses of health care, job insecurity, safety, etc.
