Smith: Vote for Tidemann

Letter to the editor

Posted

Upon meeting my new colleagues in the South Dakota State Senate in January 2019, to a person they said to me, “You sure have some pretty big shoes to fill. Larry Tidemann did a lot for his district, especially when it came to South Dakota State University.”

As the former chair of the Appropriations Committee, Larry knows all the intricacies of the South Dakota budget. He lived it for many years. In these challenging times, we need his knowledge and wisdom.

Please consider joining me in voting for Larry Tidemann for the South Dakota House of Representatives. We need his “big shoes” back in Pierre – now more than ever. Thank you.
