And the campaign signs are blooming by the side of the road.
This sign is for Samantha Stormo who is running for the House in District 6 (that's her photo in the top banner). She's got several signs up across the district with more to go up.

Kind of a sad sign. Too much unused, white space. Name could be much larger and have more pop. The star overpowers everything else. KISS theory should always prevail.

Now that we've heard from her opponent...
Actually, everything draws you into the name. Anon, it doesn't sound like you've done a lot of this.
I saw one of her opponents logos on her website, and it was laughable it was so bad. It looked like a bad Christian Rock album cover.

Actually mjb, I have done this quite extensively, and you would be amazed at my success rate. Nothing draws you into the name. The star is too large for the name in conjunction with the sign. If you look at it quickly (like most people do) you will think it is Starmo with that logo. You could have dropped the star, enlarged the name, taken up more of the white space, made the "t" just a little taller to set it off, and you could have enlarged the office slightly. I have all the respect in the world for pp, but this is not as good as it could be. Remember, the little things matter.

By the way, her opponent's logo on her website, kristinoem.com, is a little hokey. "Winds of change" does sound like it should have Fabio on the cover. Keep in mind though, this is just on the website and a brochure, what she puts up for signs could be completely different.

there is also something to be said for giving the same message all the time. why would you promote - whatever- and then put out a different ad. regardless this is so far ahead, there is just behind

I agree that consistency is important, but when your displays are as bad as the ones on the website, straying from the original isn't a bad idea.

I like the sign, and she's cute,too.

I don't get how Kristi Noem can talk about how pro-life she is and in the same brochure use the phrase "winds of change." Sounds like the same old crap, different face to me.

Pardon my bluntness, Kristi needs to push the down button on her elevated attitude. She must be suffering from I-dolatry and fallen in love with herself. The Web page is an I-sore. It reads like a "big gun" of small caliber. No substance as to what the Wind of Change is. Found it to be immensely boring. Stormo sign is neat, clean and striking.

Noem is not Art Fryslie, so ,if elected, it would be a "Change". So, she's pro-life, that's great. What's your point, person 10:21?
Here's some of the information on the Corson County Charges: COUNT I That on or about December of 2005, in the County of Corson, State of South Dakota, Ted Alvin Klaudt did commit the public offense of SECOND DEGREE RAPE (SDCL 22-22-1(2)) in that he did accomplish an act of sexual penetration with his foster daughter, A.M., through the use of force or coercion; and as to COUNT II That on or about July or August of 2006, in the County of Corson, State of South Dakota, Ted Alvin Klaudt did commit the public offense of SECOND DEGREE RAPE (SDCL 22-22-1(2)) in that he did accomplish an act of sexual penetration with his foster daughter, A.M., through the use of force or coercion; and as to COUNT III That on or about July or August of 2006, in the County of Corson, State of South Dakota, Ted Alvin Klaudt did commit the public offense of SECOND DEGREE RAPE (SDCL 22-22-1(2)) in that he did accomplish an act of sexual penetration, separate and distinct from the act alleged in Count II, with...
As the only South Dakota blogger out with 5 daughters, I feel I need to weigh in on the whole discussion that's occurring with regards to the HPV vaccine, and Governor Rounds' proposal to make it available. My family (including my three oldest girls) watched my mom, their grandmother, succumb slowly and painfully to cancer which spread throughout her body. If a similar fate from a different type of cancer was preventable through a simple shot, why wouldn't anyone advocate for it? At the age most of my kids are going to be getting it, they're still playing with barbies, and negative influences such as most of the programming on MTV, and other assorted trashy television is verboten in my house. All they're going to know about this vaccination is that it's a shot, just like for teatnus or measles. They'll go "Ow, I don't want a shot," and that will be it. Just another mark on their vaccination record. One check box for DPT, one for HPV, and so on...
Here's a hot one - Republican District 6 Representative Kristi Noem sent out an e-mail plea yesterday to people in her District. It regards the abortion measure that I've noted is going to be filed in the legislature, supposedly by Representative Gordon Howie. Why is this interesting? It contains a run down of (allegedly) who is, and who isn't on board the measure in the senate: Abortion bill update from Rep. Kristi Noem I would like to ask you all to pray. There was an impromptu meeting today of all legislators in the House who have taken a strong pro-life position. One of our house members is considering filing a bill that would ban abortions in the state with exceptions for rape, incest, and for the health of the mother. These are the issues that most people had objections to during the initiative vote on November 7th when the Vote yes for life campaign lost its battle. There was some dissention among the group that some did not want the bill to be filed unless we coul...
