From KDLT, Marty Jackley announces his campaign is doing well, and has raised over 1 Million:
South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley announced today his campaign has reached a record fundraising level in the governor’s race.
His campaign office says they raised over $1M in 2017, which breaks the single-year record for money raised by a gubernatorial campaign in a primary.
Good for Marty- That is very impressive and proof he has strong support from South Dakotans. I can’t wait to see what Kristi reports and where it came from. This is going to be a fun race to watch.
It will also be very interesting to see what ‘South Dakotans’ are contributing to Jackley and how much. Before they start calling their fundraising a record, they should wait to see what the competition raised.
Press release said they broke the record- which is true. I guess we will see if they have the record when Kristi files. So far it looks like almost all of Marty’s money is coming from in state, while Kristi’s money is coming from out of state. I guess we will find out soon when they file reports.
What was the previous record?
Also how much was spent to get to that total on each side will be interesting.
Also how much is still on hand….wait for a lot of commercials…urgh
Why don’t they have to report like Congress? That would make the races a lot more intense. Every three months.
