Candidates' similarities differ

Apparently Democratic Representative Jasper Schneider is willing to go against his party’s bandwagon and quit in the middle of his first term to run for State Insurance Commissioner. Apparently it is ok for a Democrat to only serve a quarter of his freshman term as an elected official, while the Democratic Party continues to rant and complain about Republicans.

The Bismarck Tribune has said that a race between Insurance Commissioner Adam Hamm and Schneider would be interesting because of their similar backgrounds – they are both attorneys. That is where it ends.

For almost a decade, Hamm has handled high profile cases and gained a wealth of knowledge and experience as an attorney. Conversely, Schneider has been with his family’s law firm for only 2 years.

Hamm’s substantial experience as an advocate for people speaks for itself and makes him the clear choice.
