Don't recall his name, but he's serving time in jail for manslaughter. Hence the reason for the special runoff election. His seat was vacated because of that trial and conviction earlier this year.

You're referring to Janklow's vacant House seat. But I am sure Thune and Daschle are not involved in that race.

I think that you should put the sauce away. The guy serving time is Jankelow - a member of the House of Representatives. Daschle is a Senator and Thune is running against him in November. They have nothing to do with any special election to select a successor to Jankelow.
