American voters prefer dead people to Republicans at the moment

A woman who died two months ago won a county com­mis­sion­er’s race in Jerauld County on Tuesday.

Demo­crat Marie Steichen, of Woon­socket, got 100 votes, defeat­ing incum­bent Repub­lican Merlin Feist­ner, of Woon­socket, who had 64 votes.

Jerauld County Aud­itor Cindy Peterson said voters knew Steichen had died.

“They just had a chance to make a change, and we respect their opinion.”
