YANKTON, SD (KELO.com) — There are no guarantees in any election. Those are the words of long-time Senator Jean Hunhoff of Yankton, who lost her primary election yesterday. She was among a number of incumbents who were ousted by conservative challengers.
Another major factor, Senate Bill 201 – the so-called “Landowner Bill of Rights” that stripped local government control, and transferred it to the state Public Utilities Commission.
Senator Hunhoff co-chairs the Legislature’s Appropriations Committee, which is losing several other members heading into next year’s legislative session.
