Here is what the article said about South Dakota...

South Dakota

Incumbent Republican Chris Nelson is term limited from running for a third term. Republican state Sen. Jason Gant and Democrat state Sen. Ben Nesselhuf are vying for the open seat. I haven’t seen any polling data, but the Republicans are poised for massive landslides on the Senatorial and Gubernatorial races. As with Michigan, this should be a safe bet, but it is the other Republican seat that Soros is challenging. It is also important to note that in SD, the Secretary of State is the authority for issuance of concealed weapon permits. Gant has been outspoken about the Democrats longtime cheating on Indian reservations, and needs some more money to keep him on top.
