PIERRE — Secretary of State Shantel Krebs is encouraging South Dakotans to register to vote ahead of the voter registration deadline on Oct. 22 for the Nov. 6 General Election.
“As South Dakotans we value our right to vote and appreciate the freedom we have to voice our opinions at the ballot box,” noted Secretary Krebs. “In order for an unregistered South Dakotan to participate in the Nov. 6 General Election, their voter registration form must be received by their county auditor by 5 p.m. local time on Monday, Oct. 22.”
To register to vote, fill out a voter registration form, sign it, then mail or turn it in to your county auditor’s office. Your voter registration form must be received by the county auditor 15 days before any election if you wish to vote in that election.
The Secretary of State’s website has a Voter Information Portal available to enable current registered voters to confirm their registration status, find their polling place, track their absentee ballot application, and view their sample ballot.
