Default Proof of "If Voting Mattered They'd Make It Illegal"

Just last November South Dakota voters overwhelming voted for ethics reforms to curb political corruption in the state. A few days ago the state legislature repealed the law approved by the voters last election day.
Can't make this **** up. Eff all politicians both Dummycrat and Rupublitard!
As Huey Long said there isn't a dime's worth a difference between them. One skins you from the neck down and the other skins you from the ankles up.

Voters Passed an Ethics Law. 3 Months Later, the State Repealed It.

February 3, 2017
Gov. Dennis Daugaard on Thursday signed House Bill 1069, effectively repealing a voter-approved campaign finance and ethics law set into statute as Initiated Measure 22.

Because the bill contains an emergency clause, it will take effect immediately. That means the law that calls for establishing an independent state ethics commission, setting strict new limits on gifts to lawmakers, and creating publicly financed campaign credits became history in South Dakota.
