It looks like it’s “Game On!”
Crabtree 4 Congress FEC Form 1 by Pat Powers on Scribd
State Senator Casey Crabtree filed paperwork late this afternoon to launch his campaign for the congressional seat being vacated by Dusty Johnson as he runs for Governor. From the Form 1 filing, it appears Delon Mork will be the treasurer for this campaign.
A website placeholder is up at crabtreeforsouthdakota.com, where you can donate to the campaign:
Watch for an official announcement soon!
Good Candidate! Proven record of supporting Agriculture, South Dakota’s #1 industry.
Carbon Capture Crabtree will never get my vote.
You might wanna change your nic to NOMAN.
Casey has been the sponsor of some of the most important bills of the last several years. He will certainly have my vote.
Jackley is definitely not giving off the world-beater vibe that Johnson is in the gubernatorial race. I would be curious to see what polling looks like by the end of the year.
A nice guy whose time in elective office has passed. He has always been ambitious and has a large ego, but even many of his fellow RINOs don’t support him, and he has no conservative support in the state. If it’s Jackley vs. Crabtree, the former wins in a landslide, but there will probably be other candidates.
Not sure where your info is coming from, but it’s not remotely accurate. He isn’t a RINO and he has a lot of support. Jackley also has support and it will be a good race. South Dakota would do well to send either to DC.
FWIW, Casey and Marty are both great guys. Wish SD had two congressional seats as do Montana/ Idaho. Today the sweet spot is 1.2 million residents but by 2030 that # will rise.
I think it’s time to start defining what exactly is a RINO. No, I don’t want the acronym. Actually define what it actually means.
It seems to depend on who is throwing it around.
Sen Crabtree would make a fine congressman! Not too young and not too old. Not wacky right and not a RINO. He’ll be the Goldilocks of this congressional race. Just right!
Globalist/Socialist/Demo here Jackley has the personality of wood putty. Crabtree gets all MAGA primary vote Save your money Marty and ohers
He’s a great choice! Pro Ag & Pro South Dakota!!
1 minute after my post MAGA jumps in
The Captain of saying what everyone wants to hear, that’s Casey Crabtree. We have enough spineless elected officials in Washington DC. We don’t need another one.
Where are Jordan Youngberg and Russ Olson at on this deal? They are the dynamic duo I look to for Madison influence.
At least Crabtree can look back and say he tried.
Crabtree is the Toby Doeden or Jon Hansen of this race, mostly in polling results, but if the shoe fits…
caseys gonna be a great candidate. i feel being AG is the perfect spot for jackley.. south dakota got it right the first (and second) time. marty lacks the charisma to stand out in a 1/435 situation.
This will be interesting as the Madison Mafia were bigger backers of Jackley when he ran for Gov in 2018 but now one of their own is running.
Fear the Madison Mafia! 😆
Casey is the trumper in this election. I’ll be voting for Marty.
Who else runs? Does Marty fill the void on the right? Does he get a Trump endorsement? What about Tony – does he even run? Doesn’t seem to be a lane for him any longer with two better candidates.
