Shane Anderson was the treasurer of the North Dakota District 24 Republicans. He also was the chairman of the recall effort to punish Rep. Dwight Kiefert, a fellow Republican. This is after the local Republicans already voted to censure Kiefert.
What did Kiefert do that was so terrible as to merit censure and recall? He voted with two-thirds of the other North Dakota Republicans to expel sexual harasser Luke Simons. Shane Anderson, who has a local minister’s license at the United Pentecostal Church International, is leading the effort to punish Kiefert for voting to expel an abusive, harassing, sexual predator.
Dwight Kiefert remains the state representative for District 24, so it seems the people in the district are not as keen to protect sexual predators as Shane Anderson. In fact, Kiefert said this ploy guaranteed his next election.
The effort to defend sexual predator Luke Simons is the work of Anderson and the Bastiat Caucus. There is something hilarious about North Dakotans, who rank 48th in population and 7th in farm subsidies naming their extremist GOP organization after the French economist who opposed subsidies.
