This filing came last week. Apparently the Minnehaha County Republican Party is dumping cash into the Freedom Caucus PAC while leaving some of their candidates by the side of the road:
I spoke to one Minnehaha County candidate and asked if they had gotten $950 from the county party. The answer? Nope.
We’ll just have to keep an eye on where that cash is going a little down the line, since they’re using donor dollars for a private PAC, and follow the money.
Absolutely despicable. That is NOT what the Party is for.
Who is going to tell them otherwise? The counties have run amok and no one is going to do anything about it.
This will likely cause many normal members to disengage. Hopefully they put someone normal in a the chair but sadly, many don’t want to deal with the far rights they’re sucking in.
It looks like the previous Yankton County board seems to have set the precedent about county parties sending money to PACs. If people don’t like it happening now then they should’ve been opposed to it happening then too.
The SDGOP will be a lost cause if Amendment H doesn’t pass. Stand back and watch the train wreck over the next several years.
