SB92 changes how many signatures are required on petitions for municipal elections in South Dakota. Instead of the current signature requirement, the bill adjusts the threshold that candidates and ballot measure supporters must meet when submitting petitions to get on local ballots. The specific changes make it easier or harder (depending on the municipality) for people to qualify for municipal elections through the petition process.
