Former State Representative Liz May has filed her candidacy for Congress with the Federal Election Commission as of today:
Liz May FEC Filing by Pat Powers on Scribd
Not too much that’s interesting in the filing. Fairly boring stuff, but it’s confirmation that she’s in the race.
What does the filing tell us that we didn’t already know? The campaign’s website is lizmayforcongress.com (which is not active yet), Paula Livermont of Spearfish is noted as her campaign treasurer, who I believe may be her former district mate’s (State Rep Steve Livermont’s) spouse. And her campaign account is in a bank in Ohio.
The Liz Marty May for Congress campaign has yet to officially launch, but clearly she’s in (sans announcement) and running at this point.
Ohio bank? Odd.
The whole thing is sad. Does she think she has a chance? I’m afraid she’s surrounded herself with an echo chamber that really believe that she can beat Dusty. What a waste of time and resources.
from lora hubbel on may’s facebook page: “Liz is an Incredible lady, nothing like the fake dirt farmer we have in the Governor’s mansion now who claims to be a rancher. Liz is the real deal PLUS so much more.” so there’s that.
if she’s going to stand with the tantrum club, she may as well stay home.
