Monae Johnson Announces Bid to Become South Dakota’s Next Secretary of State.
PIERRE, SD FEB. 24, 2022 – Monae Johnson has earned an impeccable reputation for hard work and integrity while serving under the current Secretary of State, along with two former Secretaries of State. Johnson, having worked with three Governors and three Attorneys General, has also earned the respect of her peers. With over eight years of experience working in every division of the South Dakota Secretary of State’s office, she is fully prepared to take on any challenge.
Focused on election integrity and voter confidence, Johnson is officially kicking off her campaign today, by releasing the following statement.
“We live in a time where trust and confidence are paramount in our institutions. I have listened to voters across South Dakota and I agree that we can work harder and do better. The act of voting is the sacred cornerstone of our free society and we must work together to protect it.
“Today, I am announcing my candidacy for Secretary of State in the great state of South Dakota. As South Dakota’s next Secretary of State, I will work hard to safeguard that which is sacred. The good, hard working people of South Dakota deserve full transparency, election integrity and peace of mind.”

Secretary Barnett has been one of the b st,
fairest and most ethical Secretary we have had.
Because the Russians hacked out paper ballots…
I’d be interested to know what specific changes to South Dakota’s election system she would suggest. Her campaign seems to be premised on vague suggestions of problems but never any explanation of what she means.
Let’s just ask the question. What if she wins?
Like are we all looking at this race like it is joke or a serious threat to Barnett?
Biggest threat if she wins is who she hires in key positions. She is being propped up and encouraged a few of the wacky right. If she brings in those propping her up, we have put the SOS office in the hands of people we ought not put in charge of anything.
