Shutt who passed away on December 31, 2009 Steve Raab who passed away on December 29, 1991 Theresa Vavra who passed away on December 23, 1976 BY DIRK LAMMERS Associated Press SIOUX FALLS — Republican Kristi Noem’s November defeat of Democratic U.S. Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin was voted the year’s top South Dakota story by the state’s Associated Press member newspaper editors and broadcast news. A year earlier, Noem was a little-known state lawmaker and Herseth Sandlin was con- sidered a safe bet to win re-election. But Herseth Sandlin got caught up in a wave of frustration with Washington to become the first South Dakota House member to lose a re-election bid in nearly three decades. The 2010 runner-up in the AP’s survey is the state’s widespread spring flooding, which resulted in a presidential disaster declara- tion with millions of dollars in damage to roads, culverts, bridges and other public infra- structure. Grabbing the No. 3 spot is voters’ over- whelming passage of an expanded statewide smoking ban restricting residents from lighting up in bars, video lottery establishments and Deadwood casinos. Lawmakers had passed the law in 2009 but opponents gathered enough signatures on a petition to force the November ballot initiative. Rounding out the Top 10 are: — Gov. Mike Rounds proposes a state budget that would cut state aid to schools by 5 percent. — Republican Lt. Gov. Dennis Daugaard defeats Democratic Sen. Scott Heidepriem to become South Dakota’s next governor. — Ethan Johns avoids a possible death sentence by pleading guilty to killing shoot- ing Turner County Deputy Sheriff Chad Mechels to death in March 2009. — Sen. John Thune says he is considering running for president. — The Legislature balances the state budget with a combination of spending cuts and one-time transfers from various accounts. — Voters reject a measure that would have allowed marijuana for medical use. — A South Dakota jury convicts John Graham of felony murder during the kidnap- ping of Annie Mae Aquash, whose death came to symbolize AIM and its often violent struggles with federal agents during the 1970s.

(AP) — The Nebraska Capitol is returning to its former glory after more than a decade of restoration work. Scaffolding and other signs of the $57.4 million project are expected to be taken down in the spring. The remaining repairs — work on interior courtyards — are scheduled for completion in May. Bob Ripley, who oversees the project, told the Lincoln Journal Star that it feels good for the project to come to an end and soon have the grounds free of construction. The Capitol was built during the Depression by a frugal Legislature that spent money on it as they went. Work began by plow in 1922 and finished 10 years later. The total cost was less than $10 million. The Legislature approved the renovation in 1997. Work To Repair Nebraska Capitol To Finish Soon More Midwest News On Page 14 Rachel Johnson www.yankton.net
