House Bill 1198 seeks to change the nomination process for key elected offices in South Dakota — Lt Governor, Attorney General and Secretary of State. If passed, HB1198 will introduce primary elections for these seats. This will lead to high dollar donors funding campaigns and candidates, taking the vote out of the hands of your local elected precinct friends and neighbors at State Convention.
HB1198 Opens the Door to High Dollar Donors and PACs unduly influencing South Dakota Elections.
