SDPB candidate videos: Districts 1-12
The more cynical among us might call them "don't cut our funding during the summer study" videos.
Click on any of the following links to view the candidate videos for those who traveled to Vermillion to get them done. And thank god that TV is not a dominant form of candidate communication in South Dakota.
Some candidates are relaxed and their spots are well done. Some are a bit... stiff.
There's one I watched today where I'd term the candidate "master thespian" with his ridiculous gestures and clear case of "acting" for the camera.
Regardless, check out these 2 minute videos in "Real Media Format," courtesy of South Dakota Public Broadcasting.

They didn't have one for him. Even though PP's a shill, he didn't leave anyone out.
I guess the question is: why didn't Hundstad do it?
