Stafsholt wins 29th Assembly District race.  (New Richmond News, 11/10/2016)

There were a couple of instances where so-called “dark money” made it into the campaign in the form of political advertising mailed across the district that made claims Ard had run-ins with the law. Those claims never held water and Stafsholt even regretted during a candidate forum in New Richmond last month that the organizations that put the mailings together did so without his knowledge or endorsement.
