5 Things to Know About Likely New South Dakota Congressman

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—The Republican candidate running for South Dakota’s only House of Representatives seat laid out his Capitol Hill priorities in an interview with the Daily Signal Tuesday.

Marty Jackley served as South Dakota’s attorney general from 2009 to 2019 and assumed office again in 2023. Jackley told the Daily Signal he plans to bring his legal expertise to D.C. to prioritize fighting fraud, crime, and abortion advocacy on Capitol Hill.

Here are five things to know about Marty Jackley’s record and his priorities in Congress if elected in the November general election.

1. The Very Likely Winner

While Jackley faces a Democrat opponent, Nicole Gronli, analysts expect he will defeat her. The Cook Political Report rates the seat as “Safe Republican” and Jackley has raised more than six times as much money as Gronli, a former rural development state director at the U.S. Department of Agriculture under President Joe Biden.

“The campaign is going exceptionally well,” Jackley told the Daily Signal. “We had a strong primary. We won that 80-20, but we’re getting to work.”

“I just love the campaign,” Jackley added. “I get to talk to South Dakotans about what they want to see in public safety and AG’s position, as well as what they want to see in a voice for Congress.”
