Campaign themes
2014
Randall's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[2]
On Economic Development…
- Excerpt: "Adequate investment in education, strong linkages between local business and our schools, and business innovation are the path to growing successful business today that become our large employers and wealth creators of tomorrow."
On Healthcare…
- Excerpt: "South Dakota has dodged the opportunity to insure our lowest income citizens under the Affordable Care Act. This is morally wrong and economically short sighted, given the huge influx of federal dollars pledged to provide such life-saving care to our most vulnerable citizens. We should say YES and fully participate in this opportunity for our citizens."
On Education…
- Excerpt: "I will make education a priority for our children and for the viability of our community and our economy. We need leadership that will work with our school boards, school administrators, teachers, students and parents to build and sustain vibrant schools performing successfully for the 21st century."
