SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — The director of the South Dakota Division of Criminal Investigation has announced he’ll run for attorney general. That suggests embattled incumbent Republican Jason Ravnsborg won’t seek a second term as he faces an impeachment trial in the death of a pedestrian. David Natvig’s announcement Tuesday sets up what will be a showdown of at least two candidates at the GOP convention in June. Natvig announced his candidacy in a video touting his work investigating drug trafficking. He will face Marty Jackley, a former state attorney general and U.S. attorney who mounted a campaign to unseat Ravnsborg as he faced impeachment for his actions surrounding a 2020 car crash in which he struck and killed a pedestrian.
