    1. meh, not much difference between Dave Munson as a Democrat and your typical run-of-the-mill Sioux Falls Republican.
      Republicanism in Sioux Falls is mostly a social club.

  5. He really is getting desperate, who are these people? Looks like a bunch of has been politicians.

  6. Same people who’ve been in his commercials. Someone should connect the dots and point out who’s worked for him publicly or privately, who has a contract with him or the State, who’s kid works for him, and how much he’s sent in forfeited cash to various law enforcement agencies. And in his ads, who’s related to him.

  7. And I’ve never figured out why he’s so proud of the Russ Janklow endorsement? So proud to have him in ads as a key endorser and then my favorite are the ones where he’s just in the background.

    Russ appears to be a successful attorney but is the endorsement important simply because he is the son of Bill?

  8. How about the vast majority of states attorneys and sheriffs across south dakota, including his opponents home turf?!! Says a lot when your home turf officials say No!!! Am thinking there may be a release from vast majority of states attorneys rolling soon too. Comments on russ janklow are out of bounds..he is an honorable man and I respect him. He has always been professional in any dealings I have had with him. He has my respect. Bill does too, even if I did not always agree with him.

    1. Vic—Is there a list of Sheriffs and States Attorneys that have endorsed Jackley? I did not see it on his website. I would like to know where my county officials stand. Thank you.

      1. I have been one of the people calling states attorneys and sheriffs personally. What county? Vast majority say can use name, etc..a fee are concerned about backlash from Marty’s opponent to the county they represent if named.

        1. I understand the backlash but if you don’t put out a list, how do we trust but verify the number and we may not get a chance to see these important people in our community in the next few days….

          Meade & Lawrence…I would think they would in Meade, being Marty’s home turf, but I know the sheriff has a contested race

  9. The problem we have now, is that people like bill janklow and Tom Daschle could cross party lines, talk, enjoy life, be friends, cross the aisle and get things done for south dakota in the past..now, really?! It’s called statespersonship and honor..jackley has it..opponent does not. Take for instance I can call or email someone like mark mikkelsen regarding legislation..or others and get a reply..and have input. Noem couldn’t even say hi to a Democrat legislator from my district..or Republican ones unless they were important enough for her. Jackley replies to all…mikkelsen replies to all..janklows have my respect…noem lied about NRA endorsement..herseth had it..the do whatever to win attitude

    1. Take a drive around her home county and look at signs…. jackley signs folks..that says alot!! I would not endorse anyone like how I am marty unless I truly believe in him and think that all of us as south dakotans could visit with him and have a voice be it Republican, democrat, libertarian, independent or other

  10. The gold boys club defends one of their own…shocker!

    Does it surprise anyone that these folks want the candidate that represents the same old, same old.

  11. Why didn’t they just send out a release on this one? Watching this is embarrassing. There are three times as many people up front as in the chairs. It’s just weird.

  12. I liked the content, but yeah put some behinds in the seats….even if you have to grab people from the library…which is where this appears to be…..is it?

  13. Marty Jackley would have made a great lawyer for the people of South Dakota someday. It’s too bad that he chose politics. Under that umbrella, he’s operated a completely corrupt regime as our State’s top law enforcement official. I can’t think of a more morally ill-equipped candidate to represent our State.

    *As a side note, I’d always hoped it would turn out differently for Mr. Jackley and for us.

  14. Seemed he could have saved 20 mins and just sent out a press release…probably would have looked better than empty chairs. Who are these people anyway????
