Toby Doeden can't even keep his story straight. Why would anybody trust him to manage an entire state?
Last time Democrats held the Governor's office, we brought money back into the pockets of South Dakota working families. South Dakota Republicans have done the opposite.
Marty Jackley announced his campaign for Congress almost a year ago. 309 days later, his website still doesn't have any information about where he stands on any major issue. Does Marty Jackley think that he's an heir to a throne?
That's a total of $186,962,586 that South Dakotans no longer have in their checking accounts, all thanks to the Republican Party's reckless war in Iran.
Rhoden's $69M surplus is built on $32M of unspent Dept. of Social Services funds. That's assistance families needed, paid for, and didn't get. This "surplus" is a broken promise to working families.
Mike Rounds voted to cut $500 billion from Medicare in his vote for the One Big "Beautiful" Bill. Anways, here are some of his ads from when he first ran for Senate.
All across the state, Democrats are meeting with you & your neighbors. Join us at any of our upcoming events this summer!

Students in South Dakota are reporting monthly payment increases as high as $300 more every month. South Dakotans are already stretched thin - and Donald Trump just stretched South Dakotans with student loans even thinner.

Republican State Senator Tom Pischke (R-Dell Rapids) turned himself in on Tuesday morning after facing felony election fraud charges.
REMINDER: Last year, SD Democrats like Representative Erin Healy brought legislation to lower childcare costs for South Dakota working families. Larry Rhoden vetoed that bill. Don't let him forget it.

Juneteenth reminds us that the promise of freedom has always required people willing to demand it. 161 years ago today, the last Americans to be enslaved learned they were free - two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Happy Juneteenth, South Dakota!
South Dakota has had enough of career politicians. It's time we send a working class South Dakotan like @NikkiGronli to Washington.
SD Dems have real momentum in 2026. Let's turn that momentum into impact this November by electing Democrats up and down the ballot.
So if you're tired of getting ripped off...maybe it's time to consider a change in leadership. Vote for South Dakota Democrats who will work to lower your costs, in Pierre and in Washington.
