Pretty soon Pat Powers is going to figure out that he shouldn't be crowing about the latest Survey USA poll. The results—commissioned by KSFY, KOTA, and AAN—show the Rounds campaign losing voters and failing to dominate, contrary to all expectations for a rich, well-known Republican in South Dakota. They show Daugaard holding steady but Wismer rising, with an opportunity to capitalize on her support for and Daugaard's opposition to the wildly popular minimum-wage ballot measure.
And then there's this expectation-buster:
In the race for secretary of state, likely voters say they prefer Republican Shantel Krebs over three other candidates. Krebs has 41 percent support and is followed by Aberdeen Democrat Angelia Schultz at 31 percent. Seventeen percent of those surveyed say they're still undecided while 7 percent would vote for Constitution Party candidate Lori Stacey and 4 percent for Libertarian Emmett Reistroffer [Scott Waltman, "Survey South Dakota: Daugaard Enjoys Solid Support, Likely Voters Favor Wage Boost," Aberdeen American News, 2014.09.10].
Shantel Krebs has been campaigning for the Secretary of State's job for over a year. Angelia Schultz jumped in last June and still hasn't launched a full-fledged campaign. On the rare occasions when Powers bothers to post something other than GOP press releases, he works himself into a lather ridiculing Schultz with rumor and piggish insult.
But there Schultz is, just ten points behind Krebs, who just like Mike Rounds can't parlay her electric smile into majority support. Angelia, you have some undecideds to meet. Get on the trail!
Down in the margin of error, we see Consti-spiracy Party candidate Lori Stacey pulling the perhaps predictable 7% protest vote from those who don't know better. As evidence that the South Dakota Libertarians have destroyed their brand, their Secretary of State candidate Emmett Reistroffer can't even beat Stacey, pulling only 4%.
On Libs, Krebs, minimum wage, and Rounds, the September 3–7 Survey USA poll provides support for theses the Madville Times has offered and undermines narratives Dakota War College has peddled. Expect some fake analysis from Pat any moment now explaining why we can't trust Survey USA.
The conspiracy party is the Democrats who belief whites oppress blacks, males oppress females, and their is some kind of movement toward a Christian Theocracy where gays will be killed.

Here Sibby,(the party of denial),

Mike, thanks for helping prove my point.
Like I said,party of denial.
Mike, I call it the party of deception. The same goes for the Democrats.
Sibson, the only point you have is on the top of your head.
love your baiting style sib, say really stupid things so people respond to the troll
Wow.
Yeah .... did you look at the link regarding the PCT candidate, Steve? I don't think "conspiracy" means what you think it means.
I'm glad that hope glimmers for some candidates.
Hahahaha! Roger, you made me laugh again! Thanks.
"so people respond to the troll"
with hate-filled personal attacks and mockery. How Christian, tolerant, and loving is that Deb?
Steve look it's probably that our or especially my perception of what is going on in the world are worlds apart from yours. It's like I'm somewhere on Earth and your out in our solar system on the planet Uranus.
Sometimes it's like talking to a friend that is involved in Multi Level Marketing. You just want to have a conversation but from my experience it always goes back to a sales pitch for MLM like your neo-Marxist, neo-fascist new age theocracy, apostolate whatever. It all distracts from the main theme of the thread.
I'm sorry but we are worlds apart on so many issues!
Yes, Sibby, Lynn makes a great point. Oftentimes, to us, it seems you are like a morphing of the Starship Enterprise with toilet paper... Circling Uranus looking for Klingons.
"Steve look it's probably that our or especially my perception of what is going on in the world are worlds apart from yours."
" It all distracts from the main theme of the thread."
Just because my worldview analysis of the main theme of a thread does not match yours, should not make me a troll. If your worldview cannot survive my analysis, need you need to reevaluate your worldview. Instead you people become frustrated and then go on the attack, which causes the conversation to go off topic.
For example, Cory made an allegation that the Constitutional Party members are conspiracy theory nuts. I pointed out his and his party's own conspiracy theories. And that is off topic?
Bill, thanks for helping me make my point.
Any time, Sibby. Happy to help.

Here is Sibby's ticket to Uranus. This was taken at Trekfest in Riverside,iowa,future home of Captain James T Kirk. He is also buried there.
No other party on our ballot engages in conspiracy-theory nuttiness to the degree that Lori Stacey and her party fellows do. Your response, Steve, is a false assertion and takes us off the main topic, which is that the Survey USA results show that Pat Powers is wrong about a lot.
"No other party on our ballot engages in conspiracy-theory nuttiness to the degree that Lori Stacey and her party fellows do."
You and your Party does. The result is hatred toward males, whites, and Christians. And the conspiracy theory that whites oppress blacks and males oppress women (what I refer to as cultural Neo-Marxism) is being propagated by the government schools:

Steve, public schools have been the hallmark of US education since colonial times: what's your beef with them?
"1.The dollar will be replaced by an IMF World Currency."
That is from your link. That is one of three possible scenarios:
Rickards says "the dollar's demise will take one of three paths"...
1. World money
2. A gold standard
3. Social disorder
A process of creating a "world money" is already underway...
The money is called SDRs – or "special drawing rights" – and it's created and administered by the IMF – the International Monetary Fund.

What is nutty is refusing to look at what the trumpet blowers see. How many of you were surprised by 2008? How many were surprised the 1929? How many believe it will never happen again?
"what's your beef with them?"
They have be co-opted by corporations and conspiracy nuts, pushing propaganda. And most believe the crap, that is why Stacey is polling at 7% and the libertarian at 4%.
Steve don't you feel as if your wasting your time posting on this blog? Do you really feel like you are influencing others to convert to your beliefs?
Steve: when did the Mitchell School District begin its decline?
Steve is wasting everyone's time, including all readers who come here hoping to read about something other than Steve's arcane hobbyhorses. Stop it, Steve. I'm tired of your degrading the quality of this blog. Get over yourself, get on topic, or get out.
Thanks Cory, you said what many of us feel and keep trying to say about Sibson.
Since Sibson still has a blog, although long time idle, you should charge him advertising fees for promoting his blog on Madville.
I recall another recent blogger you banned for the same reason.
And as predicted, Pat Powers has flip-flopped and now rejects the Survey USA poll: http://dakotawarcollege.com/anyone-buying-the-surveyusa-polling-anymore/
just say no, cory.
"your out in our solar system on the planet Uranus." Lynn.
"it seems you are like a morphing of the Starship Enterprise with toilet paper... Circling Uranus looking for Klingons." Bill
Where would we be on this blog if not for our solar system and science fiction tv?
Hahahahahahahaha!!!! Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!
Powers is bashing Tasi Livermont: go take him on, people.
With the retiring of Secretary Gant the state needs a military veteran to step into the office and begin a future of integrity and principles of value. Angelia Schultz who served our nation under Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld in President George W. Bush’s administration is exactly the person for this job. A Real Veteran...
