Another Rick Berg?
To paraphrase Tom Hanks, “Rapid City, we’ve got a problem.”
Watch Repubs win in purple/blue Colorado and Iowa. Then lose in deep deep red South Dakota and Kansas.
Lucy pulls the ball.
Can someone explain this for people who don’t live in South Dakota? What are the party affiliations (I recall that Pressler is a Democrat) and what is the EB-5 scandal?

Party affialtions and background on the candidates would be helpful to those who do not follow every race meticulosly.
Rounds is the republican, Weiland is the democrat, Pressler is a former US Rep. and US Senator runing as a “centrist” and Howie is running as a conservative republican.
Although Mike Rounds support is dropping, he is still 8 points ahead of his closest opponent. All he needs is one more vote than Weiland to win.
The PPP article refers to a EB-5 scandal which involves immigrant funding of major business enterprises, some of which have gone bankrupt.
Rounds has also had to deal with fallout with his primary opponent Anne Bosworth who was arrested the day after the primary for election fraud. She is claiming a poltical vendetta from the Rounds camp.
Well, let’s hope that the “most electable” Rounds holds out for another month.
By the way, if truth in advertising was prevailing, the linked “PPP” website/organization should be named progressiveprogressivepolling.com. They and their associated mainstream media cohorts are trying use their polling and discussion of their polling to advance the ‘RAT and discourage Republicans.
If anyone in this country believes a PPP poll....they are insane, drunk, drugged or drinking too much “Obama” Kool-Aid!!! End of story!!!
PPP is a Democrat polling outfit.
Whoa.. this was one of the four I’ve been expecting the GOP to gain in November.
Amazing how that party’s candidates flame out in time to lose.
Who is the Republican wnd who is the Rat?
How the hell did this happen? SD is one of those Senate seats everyone has called “a given” for the GOP this year. And the GOP candidate is polling at 35 percent? Geesh!
Leftist polling group. SurveyUSA has Rounds up by 16 points.
