Matt Varilek Thanks Supporters

Democratic Congressional challenger Matt Varilek thanked the supporters and congratulated Kristi Noem on her reelection victory. Varilek says he is unsure what his future holds.
 

"I do know for certain that we’ll spend some time tomorrow thanking the many many people who contributed to this effort because even though it was my name on the ballot, it was a huge team of people that contributed to the effort and a family that contributed to it as well, says Varilek. So I’m gonna spend some time thanking them and figuring out what’s next."
 
Varilek says he still believes the middle class needs more representations. Noem told supporters she looks forward to another two years.
