Mark your calendars for October 14.
From today's mailbag:
Sioux Falls, SD - Republican Senate Candidate Joel Dykstra has accepted the invitation to participate in a statewide debate on October 14, 2008, featuring the ballot candidates for the office of United States Senator. The debate will be held in Vermillion and broadcasted live on South Dakota Public Television at 8:00 p.m. CDT. It will also be tape delayed on South Dakota Public Radio.
The debate is being hosted by South Dakota Public Broadcasting, AARP of South Dakota, and the South Dakota Newspaper Association.
Dykstra welcomed the chance to engage Senator Tim Johnson in a frank and open exchange about the key issues facing South Dakota voters in this year's election. "The debate offers an important opportunity for me to articulate my positions and demonstrate the choice that South Dakota voters have when selecting their next U.S. Senator. I will continue to offer my positive message for the future and specific actions needed to change the status quo and "do-nothing" culture in Washington," he stated.
Dykstra said he is looking forward to an issue-oriented discussion as South Dakotans are eager to hear about solutions to the current energy crisis, ideas for stabilizing the economy and how lawmakers can address the high cost of health insurance and access to health care. "These issues have been developing for many years, but have not been addressed by the incumbents in Washington. It's time for someone to step up and actually deliver solutions for each of these policy areas," he said.
