This bill moves South Dakota's presidential primary election from June to the first Tuesday after the first Monday in March during presidential election years. The state will reimburse counties for any extra costs caused by holding this earlier election. Candidates and groups supporting presidential candidates must now notify the Secretary of State by the last Tuesday in December (instead of March) before the presidential primary election.
