LEDERMAN TO LEAD SDGOP
Pierre, SD – February 11, 2017 – Today, the South Dakota Republican Party elected Dan Lederman of Dakota Dunes to lead the SDGOP for the next two years.
“As I traveled across South Dakota talking to County Parties, it’s clear that county leadership is ready to play a more active role in the State Party,” said newly elected Chair Dan Lederman. “Republicans in South Dakota have been very successful in recent years and with additional help from grassroots in our state, I’m confident we can continue to improve on that success,” added Lederman.
More than 100 Central Committee Members traveled from 35 Counties to take part in the election, many for the first time.
“I would like to thank Pam Roberts for her hard work throughout these last two years as well as Governor Daugaard for the tremendous resources he’s contributed to the Party,” said Chair Lederman.
Governor Daugaard urged Republican Party members to get behind whoever won the election.
“The SD GOP is strong because we are unified, and we are fortunate to have so many great people willing to serve,” said Governor Daugaard. “I congratulate Dan Lederman and the other state officers on their victory, and I thank Pam Roberts for her hard work over the past two years. I hope the enthusiasm from this leadership election energizes our party as we look ahead to the crucial 2018 election,” added Daugaard.
Chair Lederman will begin his term immediately and has called a Special Central Committee Meeting to be held at the end of February to adopt a budget and goals for 2017.

The party is unified! Can’t wait to attend the gop fundraiser at Daugaard’s farm again this time with Chairman Lederman.
This was an epic and monumental ft. I’m not sure people realize what Lederman accomplished. No one else could have done this. He should have been chair 4 years ago. He will make us proud. Pam is a good lady and did a good job. Lederman will live up to his high standards for the party and return the sd gop back to the people and grassroots while expanding the fundraising base.
Great day for the GOP.
You hit the nail on the head I agree Dan Lederman will be one of the best chairman the SDGOP has seen.
Dan will do a great job he’s been involved in South Dakota politics for a long time and I personally think he was born to do this job.
He’s got a lot to live up to, and I think he’s up to the job. Keep these stats in mind- $250k in the bank, 89 legislators, all statewide offices, 0 scandals.
Will be interesting to see where we’re sitting two years from now.
Zero scandals?
Great. They raised a bunch of money, didn’t spend it, now we have a whole lot of people convinced they live in the most corrupt state in the nation and the only person who can clean it up is Stace Nelson. Oh yeah, the party is in great shape. Keep telling yourself that.
OUT OF TOUCH—you don’t even know why she lost from that post
Yep, the GOP in SD just took a turn for the worse.
Let us just hope that Mr. Lederman isn’t the next Gant for the GOP.
Todd Kolden few people on the planet find me disliking them just from the way their mind spins words down on paper.
You are one of them.
BTW what part of the Republican Party do you like?
Charlie Hoffman is out of touch and lost by a vote of his neighbors.
Heaven help us.
