Zac McCrary on MUCK YOU!: The South Dakota Senate Race Democrats Should Not Screw Up
Our 2nd Pod for Brian Bengs Week - Campaign Pollster and Advisor, Zac McCrary of Impact Research.
Today on MUCK YOU!, we were joined by Zac McCrary of Impact Research, one of the sharper Democratic pollsters in the country and a longtime student of how campaigns actually work outside the Washington fantasy factory. Listen to the entire episode below.
Zac did not come on to sell magic. He came on to talk math, structure, voters, and the hard truth Democrats often avoid in red states: sometimes the Democratic label is not the vehicle that can win.
That matters right now in South Dakota.
Brian Bengs is running for U.S. Senate as an independent against Republican incumbent Mike Rounds. Bengs is a veteran, attorney, former professor, and former 2022 Democratic nominee. This time, he is not running as a Democrat. He is running as what many South Dakotans actually are: independent, frustrated, and tired of being forced into the same broken red-versus-blue trench war.
As Bengs has put it, his message is simple: “Not Red. Not Blue. Just You.”
That is not consult…
