So when your healthcare costs continue to rise, you wonder why Sanford and Avera gave this money? The corporation listed is owned by T Denny Sanford (Entire Doc: Campaign_Finance_Disclosure_Report)
I wish I would have gotten this up last week, but in the past I have had trouble finding the information online.
Even if there would have been an actual organized VOTE NO campaign, how do you compete with this kind of money? They raised over $105K and spent $66K. I found the expenditure for consulting interesting ($21K). Who was consulting this? Vernon Brown? Or did they hire someone?
These same donors have given to other projects around the area costing us mega dollars most of us will never be able to fully take advantage of.
