Politics and Elections in Sturgis, South Dakota: What do you need to know?

Sturgis is very friendly to everyone, especially tourists. (After all their entire economy is built on tourism). However, if you want to actually live there, be prepared to never speak an opinion of anything they do. You will be labeled an outsider and basically told to shut your mouth. Opinions by out of staters are NOT welcomed, and there is great animosity towards local politicians; they’re either loved or hated, no in between.
The good ol’ boy mentality is strong, so just accept everything exactly as it is, even the stupid stuff, because it will never change.
