I still think he is gonna veto it
l3wis I guess it’s the cynic in me, but I think King Rounds is gonna veto the smoking ban.
Rounds has until March 27 to veto, sign or allow the bill to become law without his signature, but a decision could come early this week. And even the people closest to the fight don’t know what the governor plans to do.
“I think it depends on who you talk to,” state Rep. Chuck Turbiville of Deadwood said. “If you talk to the casinos, there’s a good chance the governor will veto. If you talk to the nonsmoking group, there’s a pretty good chance that he won’t.”
He loves taxpayer money, and that is more important to him than the health of SD Workers. I also think his silence and feet dragging are hinting he is gonna veto it to. You would think with over 70% of South Dakotans supporting this thing, he would sign the legislation with a special ceremony. No talk of that either.
