This is the first race that could go to multiple rounds, as there needs to be a 50% vote total for the winner, or voting could go to multiple rounds.
The candidates are:
- Catherine Barranco
- Tamara Grove
- Renae Randall
Catherine could pick it up in Round 1, as there are some foundational problems with the other two; Grove coming off. Primary loss, and no one ever having heard of the other two, but we’ll see.

Catherine Barranco pulled it together and posted a better than 50% total on the first ballot. Great win for Catherine!

Isn’t Groves endorsed by God? If that for sure then…..
Grove claimed owner occupied tax breaks in Sioux Falls and residency in Lower Brulé at the same time
So do they have between 600-800 people there? you know we can’t tell by the vote counts
Congratulations, Catherine! You’ll make a great auditor.
Other states broadcast live on facebook and youtube their party conventions which are saved for later viewing on their platforms.. What is there to hide in South Dakota?
What is most alarming is that that many people voted for Randall.
