Of course, if this is true, and he won, the Royal River Casino could kill two birds with one stone.
I have heard vague rumblings that he is gearing up to run against Denny Doogard. Truth be told, if I had a choice, I would probably roll Huether. But like in the last governor election, I would probably vote for neither and leave the ballot blank.
When asked if he was going to run for mayor again in two years, he made no real promises.
This info comes from two sources;
Number one tells me about all the fundraising efforts of the SD Democratic Party concerning Huether and the recent push to get a Republican elected to the city council with Democrat’s money.
Number two tells me about the electronic mail fundraising efforts of the mayor.
Quite honestly, don’t know if either is true, the SD Democratic Party has been mysteriously quiet. Let’s just say Detroit Lewis is not on their mailing list 🙂 And that’s cool, because they are going to have to save all of their money for the Barth/Varilek race.
As for the Casino issue, I encourage the media and citizens to ask questions and demand answers. Is the mayor pursuing higher office? That is a cry for another day.
