Brief text
Businessman and self-described outsider Toby Doeden will advance to a runoff for the GOP nomination for South Dakota governor, CBS News has projected, after a competitive and frequently contentious primary.
- Frame 1Toby Doeden's advance forces South Dakota GOP voters toward a July 28 runoff over taxes and governing power.
- Frame 2No candidate is on track to reach 35%, so Tuesday's primary cannot settle the Republican nomination.
- Frame 3Gov. Larry Rhoden, Rep. Dusty Johnson, and House Speaker Jon Hansen are fighting for the second ballot spot.
- Frame 4Rhoden took over after Trump chose Kristi Noem for Homeland Security, then ran for a full four-year term.
- Frame 5Doeden has lent his campaign roughly $4 million and is campaigning on property-tax phaseout and spending cuts.
- Frame 6The July 28 runoff decides which Republican faces Democrat Dan Ahlers in a GOP-favored November race.
