South Dakota will now publish its complete voter registration file online every Monday instead of at unspecified intervals, making the data more regularly available to the public. The state will also maintain a rolling five-year archive of these weekly voter registration files on the Secretary of State's website, free of charge, so citizens and election officials can access historical voter data.
The amendment clarified that the secretary maintains and publishes the rolling five-year historical archive "on" the website and added "post of the statewide voter registration file" to describe what archives include.
The amendment changed "a weekly update to" language to "the complete statewide voter registration file" and clarified the posting deadline as before 11:59 p.m. central time each Monday, removing redundant scheduling language.
