SECRETARY OF STATE RESPONDS TO DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE LETTER

(Pierre, S.D.) – Secretary of State Monae L. Johnson received a letter from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) concerning the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) and removing voters from the voter registration rolls.

Secretary Johnson says, “We are confident in the accuracy of our voter registration list, and we look forward to working with the U.S. Department of Justice in its effort to ensure compliance with federal election laws.” Secretary Johnson further states that South Dakota has no plans to violate the NVRA and has only removed voters from the voter registration rolls with due process.

  1. My question is why the RNC aren’t griping about it as well.

    According to the website Registered Republican dropped by about 5,000
    Democrats dropped by about 4,000 and Independent/NPA dropped by about 3,000.

    Judging by that, I say she’s been fair to everyone in the process and not just one side.

    1. So SDDP registered voters continue their downward slide? Did they ever make any gains recently?

  2. Makes nonsense that the DNC is bringing this up. South Dakota GOP has the largest super majority in the US. DNC needs to spend their $$ fighting MAGA scum in other states that really matter.

  3. Anybody who is worried about this can check his voter registration in time to fix it.
    Absentee voting for the primary begins April 17th
    you have until May 18th to Register

    Absentee voting for the General election begins September 18th
    you have until October 19th to register

    You have a full month’s window of time in which to verify your registration status and fix it if necessary, and vote early while you are there.

    Just one trip to the county courthouse. You can even pay your property taxes by April 30 and October 31. Nothing will get people voting red like paying taxes the same day they vote.

    Years ago I made a lot of phone calls as part of a GOTV effort; Called almost everybody in my precinct to remind them about early voting and if they were going to the courthouse to pay their property taxes in person, they could cast a ballot while they were in there. Even if they were mailing their taxes in or the taxes were in escrow, It made them think about it.
    Whoever decided to overlap early voting with property tax due dates was a genius.
