Roger Hunt endorsement mailer hits D25 House race

Pat Powers

An endorsement mailer is out in the District 25 House race, with Republican conservative stalwart Roger Hunt urging district residents to support his old district representative Jon Hansen, and newcomer Tamera Enalls:

Interestingly, Hunt’s endorsement bypassed his former running mate, and current State Rep. Tom Pischke in favor of the two new candidates, citing Hansen & Enalls’ ‘integrity and conservative views.’

Stay tuned for Tuesday..

  2. Makes no sense……. Pischke is as conservative as they come. He has been a great representative. I am quite shocked and disappointed by this mailer. Do we really want Hanson back….. I mean the governors puppet.

    1. Being conservative and effective aren’t the same thing. I want someone who is able to get conservative things passed

    2. Pischke votes against private property rights and has supported restrictions on free speech. That’s not conservative where I come from.

      1. Looking at Citizens for Liberty scorecard he is only a 50.91% conservative in his votes also

  3. Roger is a solid conservative and it is hard to not say this is a tough blow for Pischke.

    1. Does Hunt even live in South Dakota anymore. Most of his facebook posts come from Florida. This just strikes me as Hunt being a sore loser.

  4. Pischke ran for the legislature solely to relitigate his divorce and custody case. It’s an embarrassment to the legislature.

  5. Blogger123 you throw up in your own mouth much? Having served with Hansen and having worked hard passing some good pieces of legislation with him I would say Jon worked on the Governor bringing him closer to his ideology rather than the other way around. And for goodness sake when you agree with 95% of what a Republican Governor wishes to do and you also are a Republican one cannot call that being a puppet.
    Big endorsement from one of the kindest and hardest working Statesmen ever to serve South Dakota.

  6. Hanson is an up and coming super star. Young, articulate, thoughtful and passionate. Nothing against the other candidates, Hanson is just exceptional.

    1. Just what this state needs, another lawyer and community organizer in Pierre.
