A Republican has emerged in South Dakota to challenge the incumbent Kristi Noem for the state’s lone Congressional seat.
Stephanie Strong of Rapid City has revealed that she intends to challenge the first term Congresswoman who defeated Stephanie Herseth-Sandlin in a close race in 2010.
Mrs. Strong, a political newcomer, is a resident of the most conservative region of South Dakota west of the Missouri River. The “West River” region of South Dakota was the strongest area of support for Congresswoman Noem, who hails from Castlewood, SD in the eastern part of the state.
Additional information on the challenger will be forthcoming shortly on this site.
Will Ms. Strong be at the Noem town hall on Saturday afternoon in Rapid City? I’d like to visit with her.
It is my understanding that Mrs. Strong will be out of the city on business on Saturday. But I will be there.
Does she have a campaign website up and running yet ? If so, could you post the link to it ? Thanks.
Mrs. Strong’s website is not up yet. When it does go up we will furnish the info. Stop back here soon for more information on Mrs. Strong.
If she is a strong Constitutionalist who is willing to put the citizens of SD before party she certainly deserves to be heard.
I think every politician should be defined in a primary. I am anxious to see how Kristi looks against another Republican….she looked great against a Democrat. We’ll see….
