Dem Herseth Sandlin Talks Up Vote Against Health Care In New Ad (VIDEO)

Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin (D-SD)

Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin (D-SD) has a new ad out for her re-election campaign in this red state — touting her vote against the health care reform law.

In the ad, Herseth Sandlin talks about her determination to be an independent voice for South Dakotans. “It’s why I voted against the bailouts, and a trillion-dollar health care plan — but for expanding renewable energy and improving veterans benefits.”

The TPM Poll Average currently has Republican state Rep. Kristi Noem leading Herseth Sandlin by 51.7%-42.4%.

(Via Jim Geraghty — who also notes that Herseth Sandlin does not support repealing the new health care law.)
