On April 12, Tricia Weathers, a registered Libertarian, was elected to the Box Elder, South Dakota city council. This is thought to be the first time any member of a party other than the Democratic or Republican Parties has won an election in South Dakota for at least 80 years. Thanks to Paul Frankel for this news.
Congrats to Tricia Weathers. I hope we see even more third party members elected to local governments.
well… there has been a paulie sighting! I was beginning to worry!
