Daugaard’s campaign pro was Mickelson’s

I had a number of back-channel communications letting me know that Dennis Daugaard will not be the first South Dakota gubernatorial candidate to hire a Beltway media firm for his campaign.

In fact, Paul Wilson (see post below for more details) was hired by George Mickelson for both of his campaigns in the 1980s and by Mickelson’s lieutenant governor Walter Dale Miller when he ran in a primary against Bill Janklow in 1994.

So, welcome back to South Dakota Mr. Wilson.
