From KELOLAND:
Just days before taking office, Mellette County’s Sheriff-elect is charged with DUI, possession of a firearm while intoxicated and exhibition driving. According to a traffic ticket, the Jones County Sheriff pulled over Mike Blom early Saturday morning in Murdo and issued the three tickets.
That could present a problem. Or, you at least know which county you want to travel to when you’re in the mood to par-tay!
From my mailbox comes Congresswoman Kristi Noem’s New Years’ Message to constituents:
Less than 24 hours before we close the curtain on 2014 — another great year!
This year, we celebrated many important victories and milestones together: the Farm Bill was passed, my Black Hills Cemetery Act became law, spending was rolled back to 2005 levels, and a November victory set us on an even brighter path for 2015. I’m so touched by your friendship, your support, and all your encouragement and kind words along the way. It’s an honor to serve you in Congress, and I look forward to continuing my service in the New Year!
On behalf of my entire family, I want to thank you for making 2014 such a great year for us.
Have a safe and happy New Year!
-Kristi
