I got up this morning and was still able to look myself in the eye. It has been a clean campaign. "I don't think this was an embarassing loss, it was a respectable loss. I did the best I could.

You did the best you could, we bit off a big chunk." Thorsness implored the crowd, many of them weeping, to keep faith in the political system. "Don't give up on the political process, don't get bitter, don't get sour," he said. Following his speech, Thorsness said he has given some thought to another bid, possibly against the state's other Democratic senator. Thorsness said a combination of several factors might have led to his defeat, including the nation's economic troubles, a taint on all Republican candidates Watergate. McGovern told a happy crowd of Democratic well-wishers at an election-night rally, "Two years ago we were here to concede defeat.

We believed then that it was better to lose honorable than to win dishonorably. We know tonight that it is even better to win honorably. "Together we defeated a formidable, appealing opponent, Leo Thorsness." McGovern, a stalwart of the anti-war movement during the Vietnam era, said that while the 1972 campaign was concerned primarily with the Vietnam war, the primary concern this year is what he called "the injustice of the economic system." Thorsness, 42, told a crowd of nearly 300 supporters that his political career is not over. The political newcomer, who spent six years in a North Vietnamese prisoner of war SIOUX FALLS, S.D.

George McGovern reversed his crushing 1972 Presidential loss Tuesday, winning reelection for a third term at the expense of a former prisoner of war. McGovern and his opponent, Leo Thorsness of Sioux Falls, fought a close election battle that many political observers rated a tossup before the election. With 88 per cent of the vote in, McGovern led Thorsness 113,231 to 100,534. Thorsness refused to concede the election to McGovern, but told a gathering of supporters at a Sioux Falls motel that if late election trends held up, he was out of the race. McGovern, 52, mounted a massive reelection campaign and late reports filed in Washington, D.C., indicated that the Avon native spent more than $1 million in his bid to return to Capitol Hill.

made many positive proposals," he said. "The closeness of the vote expresses a large amount of support for those proposals, and I hope the governor will take a hard look at the changes I proposed." One of Olson's major proposals was elimination of the state's 4 per cent sales tax on food items. Kneip has said that would be impossible without some way to replace the lost revenue. Janklow, 35, was locked in a bitter, personal campaign with Sande, 32, who was after a second term in office. Late in the campaign Sande charged that Janklow had a criminal record, but he did not substantiate the accusation.

"We went through the greatest mudslinging campaign in the history of this state," Janklow said. "The people repudiated those tactics. I never once talked about Sande's personal life, I concentrated on what I through was wrong with the way he handled the office of attorney general." Janklow was chief prosecutor under Sande until he quit to enter the campaign. With 76 per cent of the precincts counted, Janklow had 98,552 votes and Sande 51,492.

Richard Kneip an unprecedented third term in the statehouse, and he led most other Democratic constitutional office candidates in with him.

The victory over Republican challenger John Olson gives Kneip the chance to be the first governor in history to serve eight years. He had two two-year terms and the length in office was changed to four years effective with this election. Democrat Tom Berry in 1936 was the last man to seek a third term. He lost to Republican Les Jensen. But while Democrats captured most state offices, Republican William Janklow upset his former boss, Democrat Atty.

With 85 per cent of the state's 1,407 precincts counted, unofficial totals showed Kneip with 109,268 votes to 93,894 for Olson. "I'm grateful to the people for the opportunity to complete programs we've begun," Kneip, 41, said. "It's an indication that the people approve of the direction the state has been heading under the Democrats' administration," he said. Olson, 56, a former state highway director, had criticized Kneip for what he called massive expansion of state government spending and employe numbers.
