Due to recent remarks in an email by state Senator Frank Kloucek, the Farmers Union has kicked him off the board of directors:
State Sen. Frank Kloucek has been voted off the South Dakota Farmers Union Board of Directors for remarks he made in two e-mails last week, one of which was meant to be private but was inadvertently sent to the media.
Wednesday, Kloucek sent an e-mail to incoming Senate Minority Leader Scott Heidepriem, D-Sioux Falls, to tell Heidepriem about an upcoming event Kloucek would like to see promoted. But along with the plug about Czech Days, Kloucek also discussed his seating preferences in the upcoming session, made unflattering comments about several members of the Legislature and discussed the Farmers Union’s role in an attempt to bring an ag-related project to eastern South Dakota.
The message was meant for Heidepriem only, but was sent to dozens of other people, including many members of the media.
