Very interesting article below from CNN where the Republican legislature in South Dakota led by the Republican Governor are on the verge of nullifying a citizen-backed referendum from November that would have put lobbying and ethical reforms in place so the state legislators would act for the good of the state and not their own. Bad day for participatory democracy and shame on the members of the South Dakota Political Establishment that backed this course of action.
