From facebook, after this morning’s text message announcing his resignation from the State Legislature, Representative-elect Chris Reder is now walking his statement back:
This might be indicative of how close the vote in the House is as much as anything, as Reder is considered a member of the hard-right and was an attendee of the October rally in Sioux Falls with Mark Robinson.
Stay tuned.
I wouldn’t be surprised that he got coerced into staying on to keep the majority of rad-righties.
The ultra right is as unethical as the ultra left. They will prop him up like a marionette to keep that vote.
These far right fascists are transactional with using vulnerable people which is too bad. It would not be surprising if they pressure Reder compromising his health and personal challenges even more for their own extreme selfish agendas. Constituents will end up being short changed once again lacking representation. Not surprised..
