4. State Dem. and Herseth campaign emails

To avoid us having to forward lots of statewide emails, but assuming most of you are interested, we have forwarded our PenDems mailing list to the South Dakota Democratic Party and the Herseth Campaign. This will save us a lot of volunteer time. If you decide you do not want these emails, simply click the link to unsubscribe when they come your way. Thanks!
