so welcome here,” Duran said. Indeed. There were smiles and laughter and fellowship at the Dunn County Community Thanksgiving Dinner. Organizers of the informal planning committee of a variety of Dunn County entities didn’t know what to expect when the dinner was planned. What they got was a resounding success. Duran and his family

“I think it was a great success,” said Janet Wanek, one of the organizers. “People hung around and talked throughout the whole thing.” Dozens of volunteers came together to help with the meal. Some set up tables. Others served the food. Others bussed tables and washed dishes. And others greeted the hungry visitors like Duran with a welcoming smile assuring hand shake. Recently re-elected

Dunn County Commissioner Bob Kleemann worked with fellow commissioner Craig Pelton to serve on the buffet line. Both men said they were thankful to be able to help bring the community together with a warm meal in a project designed to bring people together to rekindle friendships and meet new people and possibly forge new friendships. Those relationships are important, many said, and coming together for Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks.

For Stephanie Ledesma, who carried her baby, Brynn, she was thankful for her “family.” Others were thankful for other reasons. “Even though we had the hail storm, I am grateful that our contractors are sticking around to get the jobs done for all of us,” said Denise Sandvick. For Duran, the dinner and accompanying atmosphere will be forever ingrained in his mind and in his heart. Yep, right out of a Norman Rockwell painting.

Sharing thoughts of thanks Local writer’s group pen a variety of reflections Editor’s Note: The Dunn County Writer’s group shared their thoughts on a variety of topics, including the election, and the holiday season.

Freedom and Responsibility by Ruth Granfor, Dunn Center Today, November 7, 2016, is the day before Election Day. The candidates running for president of the United States are Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. Today, we don’t know who will win, but tomorrow we will. What a difference a day can make! We have a responsibility to vote for the president and other offices, but we have the freedom not to, if we choose. I look at a map and marvel how the boundaries between the states came into existence. I think about those who surveyed the land, those who drew the maps and those who decided where and what the names should be. It’s amazing that our forefathers could lay the foundations of our country so many years ago. It is through their determination, responsibility and freedom that it was accomplished. Through the generations it has continued, but it hasn’t been easy. Many have lost their lives, but the determination is there, and will continue. Soon it will be Thanksgiving and then Christmas. Celebrations of joy. May we appreciate the season with freedom and responsibility.

“That’s better,” she said, and went back to her cooking. Sister-in-law smiled and nodded. I grudgingly nodded back. It hit me in the dining room. The good china was set on the white linen cloth. The silver flatware, engraved with the family initial “M,” was placed just so. Napkins, water goblets and wine glasses filled out the scene. (Looking at the flatware, I coveted it again, big time! Because my brother carried the family name, Mom always said he should get it. Yet I maintained that “M” upside down was “W”!) The center of the table held turkey and pilgrim figurines. On the two ends were candy dishes of nuts and jellybeans, some a little old, but still OK. No one around! Good! I found the oldest, driest, most awful jellybeans and nuts I could. I quickly placed those turdy-looking bits right under the turkeys’ tails and left. We said grace and were all munching, smacking and yakking away when Mom suddenly stopped and stared. “Oh!” she croaked. Everyone followed her gaze to the turkeys. Nephew smirked. Little Niece queried, “Can these turkeys poop?” And Big Niece’s eyes grew to quarter-size. My brother’s cranberries slooped as his mouth opened and Sisterin-law gulped. “Omigosh!” she said. Dad just snickered. Ahhh! Sweet, sweet revenge!

Thanksgiving Reflection

A Thanksgiving Event

by Terry Moore, Dickinson

by Verna Wolf, Killdeer

Today I am thankful I’m not a turkey.

“To be reverent without irreverence is fatal. To be irreverent without reverence is lethal.” This isn’t a word-for-word quote, but its essence delivers the same sentiment as my written ramblings. Thanksgiving, the American family day of feasting. Our standard family fare? Turkey, cranberries, mashed potatoes, stuffing, lefse, braided nut bread, squash and pumpkin pie. Mom usually hosted the feast. And as per tradition, we all partook in the glorious meal: my brother and his wife, their son and two daughters, myself and Husband. Mom was a practical, down-to-earth gal, but when the occasion called for it, she liked things to be in order and very appropriate. This day was to be honored. Being the contrary soul that I am, on the morning of Turkey Day, I donned faded blue jeans, a sloppy sweatshirt and grubby tennis shoes. I defrazzled my hair a bit and marched down to the kitchen. There, Sister-in-law and Mom were peeling spuds, cooking squash and jabbering. When I entered the hub of food production, all grew silent. Mom looked at me and raised her eyebrows. “It’s Thanksgiving Day,” she stated. “And you dressed like that?” Sister-in-law stared, didn’t say a word, shook her head and went back to the potatoes. “Why not? Its only us!” I countered. “It’s Thanksgiving Day!” was Mom’s rejoinder. “Be appropriate!” Husband waltzed in at that moment and took one look at me. “Where’d you get my old sweatshirt?” he asked. “I been lookin’ for it!” “From the dirty clothes,” I shot back. “Where else?” “Well, get it off! It looks terrible!” he said and out the door he went. “Good idea,” agreed Sister-in-law. Humph! So this 25-year-old-going-on-12 stomped upstairs and re-outfitted herself in a red skirt, black sweater, nylons and black flats. She managed to de-frizz her hair a bit more. Back downstairs, Mom’s eye looked over the change.

Thanksgiving at the Raspantis By Denise Sandvick, Killdeer The aroma of turkey wafts through the air, rolls through the room and sneaks between the slats on the blue and white kitchen shutters. The essence beckons me around the corner just in time to witness the ritual of Uncle George proudly standing before the golden, perfectly-glazed bird, all 22 pounds of its delectably tanned little turkey butt. Mmmmmm! My mouth is watering just looking up at it on the counter. Standing at about four-foot-nuthin’, I watch Uncle George prepare the electric knife for carving, but not before Ma yells out across the room: “Don’t let me catch you kids picking at that skin, you hear me?” Not a chance, I thought. She never catches me; I always get away with picking off the platter. With each cut of the knife the juices flow. The room dances with the smells and flavors of the approaching meal. All of a sudden, my punky little brother rounds the corner from the hall with a big roar of his Big Wheel. He received it on his evil, October 31st birthday. He runs over my foot while I’m standing there minding my own business. Reality sets in and away I go—to find him and rip his ears off!

Dinner Down Under by Jennifer Strange, Dickinson July is as close as you get to winter in Sydney. At least that’s how it was before climate change. 1988: my second year Down Under. I was beginning to miss Stateside life, especially the holiday season. In Australia, there is no Thanksgiving. I had a pretty serious boyfriend, though, and that made it hard to buy a return ticket to the U.S.

Paul owned the business where I worked. He’d gone to college in Ohio and knew the Thanksgiving menu. One day in July, as the days grew darker and the nights downright chilly, I suggested we host a proper Turkey Day dinner. He was all-in. Sourcing the ingredients wasn’t as easy as it sounds. This was pre-Internet and what we now think of as free trade. Where to find cranberries—that most American of fruit? Somehow, Paul got his hands on some fresh ones. The turkey had to be special ordered. When it arrived it couldn’t have been less familiar. Where was the great big, fat Butterball, straining against its plastic wrapping? This bird was mean and lean, unwrapped, its clawed feet wrapped together with twine. Thankfully, it was plucked. Pumpkin was no problem. The Aussies love to make a velvety, first-course soup of the puréed squash and chicken stock, served with a swirl of cream on top. But pecans? Back in the 1980s, it was pecana non grata in New South Wales. No pecan pie. Thanksgiving colors and symbols—gold, orange, red and the aforementioned fowl—don’t really exist in nature Down Under. So, we decided to combine American motifs and went with white and blue table linens and a centerpiece of red carnations. We invited four couples from around the world. They all arrived in their winter best, toting an eye-popping amount of wine. For several hours we sat in that tiny living room ‘round the rented table, on rented chairs, eating from rented plates and sipping from rented glasses. The company was good. The loft was warm. The sun gradually set, bathing our wine-flushed faces in fuchsia rays. I’ll be honest. Maybe it was the wine, maybe it’s the 28 years and just as many turkey dinners that have passed since that July evening, but I remember very little about the actual meal. I do know I was truly grateful for the international orphans who honored my home country’s treasured feast. Yet what I remember most is a sense of displacement and an instinct that this would be my last July in Australia. I couldn’t live another year without pecan pie!

Thanksgiving Pie by Colette “Koko” Gjermundson Can you feel autumn in the air? Can you see the candles and china gracing the Thanksgiving table? Can you hear the clanging of tableware and the voices of relatives as they chatter and chew? Can you smell the aroma of freshly baked pie? This is Thanksgiving, perhaps America’s favorite and most traditional holiday. There was probably more than one Thanksgiving celebration in the 1970s where the setting was a tiny, white, corner house surrounded by a rolled-wire yard fence in Halliday, N.D. We parked our car along the street and walked down the narrow sidewalk, up two cement steps, into the small entry, through the kitchen, through the dining room and into the living room to await the feast. Present were my dad, my mom and my three siblings. Also my mom’s great aunt, cousins and their families. Everyone was visiting and laughing, playing games of cards and Password. But the highlight of the day was in the dining room at the close of the turkey, dressing and mashed potato dinner. That’s when my great aunt—happy to have relatives gathered together and proud of the delicious meal she had served—would swiftly shuffle from the kitchen into the dining room to ask what kind of pie each guest wanted. “Would you like pumpkin, apple, minced meat or cherry?” she might inquire. My dad would engage her in his annual hilarity. “Peach,” he’d request. Or blueberry or juneberry—any flavor that wasn’t crowded among the sea of circular sensations set on the kitchen table. As the chuckle from that antic faded, Dad would switch tactics and request one piece of each. My great aunt would fill a dessert plate with the biggest pieces of pie she could cobble together. She would deliver it to my dad with a mile-wide grin, doing her best to serve a man who loved to eat and lived to tease.

Family Chaos by Pat Bailey, Dunn Center The family is coming over for Thanksgiving again this year. Where are all the card tables and extra chairs? Will Aunt Ber try to make a pie again? I hope not. It’s midnight and Mom put the turkey in the roaster, along with a pork roast, to cook slowly all night. The bread is dried, the cornbread baked, celery and onions are chopped for the dressing. Where is the soup tureen for the gravy? The rest of the dishes are right here, in the laundry room cupboard. Here they come: aunts, uncles, cousins, boyfriends, girlfriends and a neighbor or two. So many dishes to be served! Everyone brought two or three; why not just one, as asked for? Chaos sets in but, as usual, it all works out. We had a great day.

Many families do not realize the probability of needing some form of long-term care in their lifetime, according to Lori Scharmer, family economics specialist for the North Dakota State University Extension Service.

Bryan's Song I was driving home one night last week and noticed a dead deer on the side of the road just south of Killdeer. It was a sad sight. Twice in my lifetime I’ve had the misfortunate to his one of Bambi’s kind. The first happened when I just turned 16 and I had my license for about three days. I was driving home from a Babe Ruth baseball game. I hit my first home run that night, but that wouldn’t be the only first for me that night. It was about 10 p.m., and I was feeling pretty darn good. Out of the dark, a deer jumped in front of my car. I slammed on the brakes and swerved, but it was too late. Another time, I was working in Colorado. I was traveling about 15 miles per hour on a road that meandered through some hilly terrain. A deer leaped off the side of a hill and tried to jump over my vehicle. The deer landed on the hood of my pickup, did a summersault off the vehicle and landed on his feet. He scampered away, looking back with a “Where did you get your license” kind of look. So when I saw that carcass the other night, it made me sad.

By Bryan Gallegos But motorist need to realize that Bambi and company are out there. Motorists are reminded to watch for deer along the roadways this time of the year. Juvenile animals are dispersing from their home ranges. We are in the peak period for deer-vehicle accidents. Slow down and exercise caution after dark to reduce the likelihood of encounters with deer along the road. Most of the accidents with wildlife along the roadway happen at dawn and dusk. That is when deer are most often moving around. According to reports, motorists should be aware of warning signs that signal deer are in the area. When you see on deer cross the road, look for a second or third deer to follow. Also, pay attention on roadways posed with Deer Crossing Area cautions signs. Sometimes, however, deer-vehicle accidents are

unavoidable. If this happens, and you are uninjured and you vehicle is the only property damage, you don’t have to call law enforcement. Deer-vehicle accidents that involve personal injury or other property damage must be reported. A permit is required to take parts or the whole carcass of a road-killed deer. Permits are free and available from game wardens and local law enforcement officers. Here are some precautions to minimize chances of injury or property damage in a deer-vehicle accident. Always wear your seat belt. Don’t swerve or take the ditch to avoid hitting a der. Try to brake as much as possible and stay on the road. Don’t lose control of your vehicle or slam into something else to miss the deer. You risk less injury by hitting the deer. If you spot deer ahead, slow down immediately and honk your horn. And don’t be distracted by reliving your first home run while you are driving home from a baseball game.

Hat Tips Farmers Union Insurance Agent BreeAnn Hauck

Hello, We dodged a big old snow storm this past week! I was kind of ready for it. Other than the hoses spread out across the yard. The bales still in the field. The calves still on a few cows. Water lines not winterized. Tanks to repair. All in all, I’m closer than normal. The storm went south and east of us, but some of you may have been hit. Hope you got by alright! Shirley and I had grandkids for a few days this past week. Three boys. From 3 to 10 years old. Out house is too small. I never noticed before. When we bought this house Shirley wanted to put a basement under it. I put my foot down and said no. Basements are cold and damp and full of stuff that you don’t use. So we have no basement and all the stuff we don’t use is stacked upstairs or in the garage. And I don’t mind that (I hope Shirley does not read this). I go to bed early. Especially with the time change. Late night TV is that show where you guess the phrase. You know. “I’d like to buy a vowel”. It’s on so late I can’t remember the name of it. So when we have three boys that get wound up about six o’clock and start tearing through the house, it upsets the equilibrium

By Dean Meyer that I have encased myself with. But I do enjoy having them help with chores. “Help” being the key word here. Evan can do chores when it is 25 above and windy out wearing only basketball trunks and tennis shoes. He’s warm blooded. And it keeps me warm hollering at him to go put some clothes on. But he doesn’t. RJ rides the pail calves and practices steer wrestling as the calves try to come up to the bunk to eat. I think he has a real future. He even started jumping off his horse onto the ground to practice! Actually, he was riding backward and his horse took off for home. He couldn’t get turned around so he bailed off. He thought it was fun! Slate is the 3-year-old. Like me, he is an early riser. If he sleeps until five I worry about him. But he doesn’t often. He helps feed cows. He needs his own knife. He has to cut the net wrap. He calls it “nut” wrap. And he insists on cutting

every bale. It takes me a lot longer to do chores when he helps. But it makes it enjoyable. I warned him the other day ... Actually I screamed at him. “Stay back dammit! That cow is mean and she’ll get you!” He calmly looked at me and said, “Don’t worry. I’m indestructible.” Now, what 3-year-old uses words like that? And he uses some others that I won’t repeat. But his favorite thing is looking at dead cows. Or horses. In our bone pile. All ranchers have a bone pile. It’s usually hid from public viewing. But Slate knows where it is. And every day we have to stop there so he can stab the dead cows with his knife. He brought home the jawbone of a calf a couple days ago. Makes a nice toy! Grandma frowned a little, but she did relent and soak it in hilex for half a day. She thinks that day care would be a little too tame for Slate after spending days with Baboo! Enjoy Thanksgiving! I will! Dean Dean Meyer is a former legislator and ranches in southwest North Dakota. He has been a columnist around the state for years.

Dear, snowflakes — your candidate didn’t win and, now, you need play dough, coloring books, and a big hug as you waddle down the middle of the street annoying the rest of us who are just trying to get home? Of course, demanding to call in sick or miss that test while you recover? “Snowflake” a unique, special, delicate little crybaby entitled to everything. First name Stanley “spelled with a ‘C’ “? Free health care, college, housing, food and Internet. The same guys who walk up to me and whine on Friday nights, “Mr. official, he’s hitting me too hard.” You poor little thing, get back to your huddle and cowboy up! Rather than rant, I want to dispel two rampant misperceptions that keep getting bandied by the talking heads in the media this week. First, despite popular misconception, you don’t have a constitutional “right” to commit crimes as a means of protest. “Peaceful protest” was invented by Mohandas Gandhi on March 12, 1930. No guns, no pipes, no fists, no blocking traffic! And, from ALL the courts in this great country: if you break the law when “protesting,” you go to jail. You must accept the penalty (pay the price) when you cross the line during your little march. Even our North Dakota Supreme Court, in 1991, rejected that a “morally compelling reason” equates with legal “justification” or “excuse” to break the law.

By Pat Merriman When you riot, arm rioters, assault, terrorize, menace, disobey a public safety order, obstruct/ hinder a peace officer, vandalize, trespass, or impede traffic, even SCOTUS says, “sidewalks, the free passage of traffic and the prevention of public disorder and violence become important objects of legitimate state concern” to the authorities. Another quote little darlings, “Criminal trespass and interfering with law enforcement seeking to enforce the law is also not constitutionally protected activity but, rather, a violation of federal law under the Civil Obedience Act of 1968.” And, in North Dakota, if at least three of you act/agree in concert to commit ANY felony offense or misdemeanor crime of violence or pecuniary gain, you have committed a felony! Bummer … dude! Second, minors enrolled in public school do NOT have a right to protest during school hours! I don’t care what the local teacher’s union is telling you. Huh? Yep, I taught this course in college. Students don’t have civil rights at school. Sorry! When you “cut class,” whiny intentions notwithstanding, that’s called, uh, TRUANCY — a crime.

tury Code sets out the cold pricklies: with very limited exceptions (like home schooling), parents/guardians of kids between ages seven to 16 must insure their kid is actually in school during school hours, only absences “excused” by the school district are allowed, teachers and school administrators must enforce compulsory attendance and notify local law enforcement of truancy upon pain of criminal prosecution themselves. You knuckleheads make statements like, “I’m declaring war,” “there will be casualties on both sides,” “Fry the bacon,” “Oink Oink, Bang Bang.” Really? Spoken like someone whose never been blown off their feet and picked pieces of their buddy off themselves for the next two weeks. You don’t know what in the heck you’re talking about. So, put down your protest sign for a second … OK … wait for it … any peace officer has the authority to enforce an order from their senior command ordering you to move, disperse, or refrain from specified activities in the immediate vicinity of one of these riots too. The place for you to debate this will be handcuffed in court not in the middle of someone else’s property. OK … group hug! Pat Merriman is the Dunn County State Attorney.

Shop small and help local businesses Americans who are planning to hit the malls after Thanksgiving should also remember to visit local merchants for their holiday shopping, said the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) today. “Small business represents 99.7 percent of all U.S. employers, and they provide jobs for 58 million Americans,” said Juanita Duggan, NFIB President and CEO. “For many local retail businesses, the holiday shopping season is a make-or-break time, and Americans who want to support their communities and the economy should remember to shop small.” NFIB is a partner again this year with American Express in a national campaign to promote Small Business Saturday, the day after Black Friday and the traditional start of the holiday shopping season. For many small businesses, the four weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas are a crucial period that could determine whether they are profitable for the year. NFIB and American Express have collaborated on Small Business Saturday since 2010. Last year, according to the post-holiday survey released by NFIB and American Express, 95 million Americans reported shopping at small businesses on Small Business Saturday, and they spent more than $16 billion, an increase of 14 percent from the previous year. “Small Business Saturday has grown every year, and we are very proud to sponsor the promotion,” said Duggan. “Small Business Saturday is a very important day to recognize small-business owners. We hope that more Americans participate on Saturday and they keep small businesses in mind throughout the year.”

Dribble from the pen “Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving.” “Instead of complaining that God has hidden Himself, you will give Him thanks for having revealed so much of Himself.1” It is an interesting thing that two individuals should go through the same experience of life and while the one would bend his knees into the sod of the earth and lift his eyes heavenward in humble thanks to God, the other should puff out his chest in defiance to the same God and curse Him for the goodness that he has enjoyed. Such contrasts show to us that thankfulness is not an intrinsic attribute of the human heart, or simply; not all men give thanks to God. This is even more astonishing when we reflect on trademark events that gave substance and distinction to our country, the United States of America. Here is not a single heart, but a community of hearts, even a nation that from its earliest breaking forth took time to turn their hearts heavenward in gratitude

By Reverend Ray for the providence of God in granting the very fundamentals of life, food and shelter from the elements of weather. Though there are those who would assert that our nation had a much different and less religious beginning than traditional American history grants us. Still, there are echoes from the archives of national documents that dispute those who would refute it. It was Gov. Bradford of Massachusetts made this first Thanksgiving Proclamation three years after the Pilgrims settled at Plymouth: “Inasmuch as the great Father has given us this year an abundant harvest of Indian corn, wheat, peas, beans, squashes, and garden vegetables, and has made the forests to abound with game and the sea with fish and clams, and inasmuch as He has protected us from the ravages of the savages, has spared us from pestilence and

disease, has granted us freedom to worship God according to the dictates of our own conscience.2 Or as our first President, George Washington stated: “WHEREAS, It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; ... Now, therefore, I do recommend next, to be devoted by the people of the states to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be, that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country3” Thankfulness to God was part of the warp and woof of this countries earliest beginnings and through the struggles of war and the shaping of a nation unlike any before in the history of Gentile empires. It has been the heirloom of her heritage that has been guarded and recognized over and again throughout her history until in 1941 Congress passed into law the

fourth Thursday of November as a national day of thanksgiving. It is an indelible mark on a country that speaks firmly and honorably to the hearts of those first peoples to set foot on Plymouth Rock and a noble general who knelt in the snow at Valley Forge and many others across her history who offered up their lives against world tyrants and a crazed Austrian to assure that we as a free people could give thanks to God for the boundless blessings He has bestowed upon her. Blaize Pascal’s quote cited above reminds us that life itself is to be lived under an umbrella of perpetual gratitude to God for the treasure trove of revelation of His goodness showered upon man. In the words of Robert Louis Stevenson: “The person who has stopped being thankful has fallen asleep in life.4” The Apostle Paul said: “Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift.”(IICor. 9:15) Who is it that cannot be thankful to God? The Rev. Ray Druckenmiller is the Pastor at Manning Community Church.

SPORTS Winter sports season gets under way Tuesday with Killdeer girls basketball DUNN COUNTY HERALD The basketball floors are freshly waxed, as evident by the sqeak made by pivoting players wearing their new Nikes or Converse or maybe even Pumas. They’ve run miles of quarter sprints and shot hundreds of free throws. They’ve worked for hours on the pick and roll, rebounding position, and the bounce pass. They’ve worked on playing hardnosed defense and controlled high-flying offense. Success, they’ve been told many times, comes with concentration, execution, discipline and teamwork.

Sanford offers fully dissolving heart stent Sanford Health in Bismarck is now offering patients with coronary artery disease a new treatment option that disappears over time. Abbott’s Absorb stent is made of a naturally dissolving mate-

rial, similar to dissolving sutures. Sanford Bismarck is the first facility in North Dakota to offer this technology. Coronary artery disease is the most common type of heart disease, the

leading cause of death for men and women around the world. This fully bioresorbable vascular scaffold repairs, restores and renews the vessel, allowing the artery to act more natural.

CD Specials

“Generally, when a patient with coronary artery disease is treated, we would place a metal stent and that stent would stay with them forever,” said Surya Artham, M.D., an interventional cardiologist at Sanford Bismarck. “The Absorb stent will actually dissolve once the artery is healed. This allows for

the artery to pulse and flex naturally once it is healed, without a metal stent in the way.” Sanford’s interventional cardiology team underwent extensive training on the new device and has been certified to perform the surgery. Sanford Sioux Falls is the only other hospital in a six-state radius to

offer Abbott’s Absorb stent for patients with coronary artery disease. Sanford will offer the technology in other regions in the coming months and years. According to Abbott, the Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold is the world’s first FDA-approved dissolving heart stent, receiving approval in July 2016.

Dunn County helps Trump top Clinton Trump gets 79 percent of voting in county

Voters go with Kleeman, Hauck for commission

With a voter turnout that turned more than a few heads, Dunn County re-elected Robert Kleeman and Reinhard Hauck to the county commission. More than 2,250 voters from a dozen precincts in the county cast their vote, either by hand at eight polling places, or by absentee ballot. It was the highest turnout in decades, officials said. They cast their votes in local, state and national races, including the presidential race that saw Donald Trump defeat Hillary Clinton for the White House. “That the most voters I’ve ever seen,” said Hauck, who served for years as the county auditor before running for the commission in 2012. “That’s great to see that many people voting.” The Dunn County Commission race featured four running for office, two incumbents another with two terms under his belt and a newcomer. And it was close.

At left, Walt Kukla studies his ballot as he prepares to vote at the Dunn County Courthouse in Manning. Voter turnout in Dunn County was extremely high with 2,255 people voting. That was nearly 200 more than the previous presidential election in 2012.

Reinhard Hauck “We had some good candidates,” said Mary Smith, moments after she cast her vote. “It was hard to choose.” Kleeman garnered the most votes with a total of 1,206, while Hauck had 1,082. The third candidate, Glenn Eckleberg, who was seeking his third See VOTERS

Meyer, Kittilson defeated in bids for state house DUNN COUNTY HERALD Linda Kittilson’s mantra was to put people before politics as she sought a set in the state House of Representatives out of District 36. On Tuesday, voters put the Dunn

County candidate out of the state race. Fellow Democrat Dean Meyer, who owns property in Dunn County but lives south of Dickinson, suffered the same fate. Both were defeated by incumbents Mike Schatz and Luke Simons. Schatz garnered 5,277 votes while

Simons had 5,196 votes. Meyer, a former legislator, had 1,515 votes while Kittilson, a former Killdeer school board member, had 1,293 votes. For the 2016 election results from North Dakota, go to www.vote. nd.gov, which is the North Dakota Secretary of State’s web site.

Linda Kittilson

Karly Houghton had a major presentation due at noon on Wednesday at Black Hills State University. But she put it on hold to make a fourhour drive from the Spearfish, S.D. school to Dunn County to vote on Tuesday. The 20-year-old Houghton is a junior at Black Hills State, and she drove home with her roommate, Makaila Entze, 20, also of Killdeer, to cast their votes. “That’s the only reason I came home. To vote,” said Houghton, moments after casting her vote at the Dunn County Courthouse in Manning. “It’s important, especially kids of our age, to get involved in the future of our country,” she added. Entze agreed. “I don’t think people our age realize the impact we make,” Entze said. “You have to use that vote.” They did. And so did a lot of other voters. According to Dunn County Auditor Tracy Dolezal, 2,255 people voted in the election, that featured county, state and national races - including the presidential race. Of the votes cast, 528 were absentee ballots. In the previous election, 2,058 cast their ballots in the election, she said.

Kevin Sandoval is a former marine whose intimidating presence casts a wide shadow. But the 6-foot-4 oil-rig worker was brought to tears at a Dickinson restaurant Monday night by a petite 6-year-old with curly red hair. The little boy sat in a booth across from Sandoval. He noticed Sandoval was wearing a black t-shirt with a Marine Corps emblem. He recognized the sym-

bol. His uncle is in the marines, and he has “lots of them kind of shirts.” Without any prodding from his parents and with their full approval, the boy walked over to Sandoval and stuck

his hand out. Taking a sip of his iced tea, Sandoval looked at the tiny hand in front of his face. The boy’s blue eyes sparkled as he smiled and said, “I know what you are.
