In the Moment

What to know before casting a South Dakota ballot in November

On today's show...

We talk to Sen. Mike Rounds about a president's impacts on inflation and the economy. Plus, we get his perspective on the Supreme Court’s recent ruling on checks and balances in the U.S. government. 

Listen to our full interview with Rounds.

South Dakota voters will decide on seven ballot questions this year, including a number of hot button issues. We run through each one with our Dakota Political Junkies.

Jonathan Ellis, co-founder of The Dakota Scout, and former state senator Tom Dempster walk us through the November ballot.

We preview the music coming to Newton Hills State Park this weekend. Janet Schmitz and Connor Pederson share what to expect at the Sioux River Folk Festival.
