SDML Invitation to Political Candidates Policy
Whenever invitations are issued to political candidates to participate in the Annual Conference of the South Dakota Municipal League or the South Dakota Municipalities magazine, it is the policy of the SDML to invite only major party candidates to participate. For purposes of this policy, the major parties are the Democratic and Republican parties.
When considering only the Democratic and Republican candidates, for some races there was only one candidate, therefore they are not included in this publication. A complete list of candidates can be found at sdsos.gov.
