Veterans for America First is proud to formally endorse Governor Larry Rhoden for Governor of South Dakota.
Governor Rhoden has consistently demonstrated the kind of steady leadership, patriotism, and commitment to American values that veterans across this nation respect and appreciate. As a rancher, businessman, and lifelong public servant, Governor Rhoden understands hard work, personal responsibility, and the importance of protecting the freedoms that generations of veterans have fought to defend.
His strong support for law enforcement, the Second Amendment, agriculture, energy independence, and military families reflects the values held by countless veterans and patriotic Americans throughout South Dakota and across the country.
Governor Rhoden has shown that he is willing to stand up for rural communities, support economic growth, and defend constitutional liberties without wavering under political pressure. Veterans for America First recognizes leaders who place America first, support our troops and veterans, and remain committed to securing the future of this country for the next generation. Governor Rhoden has earned that recognition.
At a time when Americans are demanding leadership rooted in common sense, accountability, and patriotism, Governor Rhoden continues to provide a strong voice for conservative principles and the citizens of South Dakota. His leadership style reflects integrity, discipline, and service above self, qualities that resonate deeply within the veteran community.
On behalf of Veterans for America First and our supporters nationwide, I am honored to endorse Governor Larry Rhoden for Governor of South Dakota. We look forward to supporting his continued efforts to strengthen South Dakota, defend American values, and ensure that veterans, military families, and hardworking citizens always have a voice in government.
Respectfully,
Robert Cornicelli - VFAF National President (May 2026)
