New Poll: Jackley has Massive 52 Point Lead in Congressional Race

Pierre: Today, a new independent poll conducted by Mason-Dixon Strategy and Polling showed Attorney General Marty Jackley with a massive 52 point lead over his opponents. Jackley leads his closest opponent 57% to 5%. The poll is an improvement over other independent polling from late June showing Jackley with a 43 point lead over his closest opponent.

Jackley not only has massive leads in all polling conducted in the race, he has also shattered fundraising records. Jackley recently filed his first quarterly campaign finance report for Congress reporting $525,760 raised with $503,279 cash on hand, raising 155% more than any other candidate in South Dakota has raised for their first fundraising quarter in a campaign for the House of Representatives. In fact, Jackley raised more than double the amount of his four opponents combined. “I’m proud of the momentum that continues to build for our campaign,” said Marty Jackley. “It is a testament to the hard work we put in for South Dakota every single day.” “The polling shows the voters know that I am the only true conservative in this race,” said Jackley. “I serve on President Trump’s America First Attorney General Advisory Council and I’m the only candidate who endorsed President Trump in the primary. I’ve built a relationship with the White House to push a conservative America First agenda and deliver results for South Dakota.”

Jackley continues to build strong momentum and is the clear favorite in the race for Congress. The record-breaking fundraising and massive leads in independent polling proves Jackley has overwhelming support from all corners of South Dakota. An October 28, 2025 Cook Political Report story says Jackley is well-positioned to win the race and states, “Jackley is dominant enough that any opponent will have a tough time to knocking him off course.”
