Duane DeKrey To Announce Candidacy

I have it on pretty good authority that North Dakota state Representative Duane DeKrey of Pettibone will be announcing his intention to seek the NDGOP's nomination to run against Earl Pomeroy on Friday.

Just a rumor at this point, but I'm about 90% positive that's what will be happening.

From what I know of DeKrey he'll make a much better candidate than Ian Karvo who is also seeking the nomination. Nothing against Karvo personally, I just get the feeling that he's all talk and no substance. The "issues" portion of his website reads like nothing more than a bunch of strung together buzzwords and his campaign, on the whole, has made me think of the words "amateur hour" more than anything else.

DeKrey is an experienced politician and will make a much better challenger for Pomeroy. Karvo will hopefully get some experience under his belt and try again in the future.

Mr DeKrey is a decent man who cares deeply about North Dakota.  I had interaction with him a few years ago during the Legislative session.  I was supporting some issues I cared about and was in contact with him.  He was thoughtful and concerned about issues that matter and not just politics.  He impressed me.  He would be a fine representative for North Dakota.  I hope he runs. 

Even though I live in Illinois and couldn’t vote for him there, I’ll vote for him from here with this comment.  You couldn’t do better than Duane DeKrey, North Dakota.  Time to stop voting for Liberals and become the conservative state you think you are. 

I remember Earl Pomeroy’s “Supportive” comment about Howard Dean.  We elephants have long memories.  We don’t forget friends.  Maybe with Duane or Earl it’s win win for North Dakota.
