2016 Municipal/School Election Workshops

Presented by: South Dakota Municipal League Office of South Dakota Secretary of State Associated School Boards of South Dakota

Three election workshops are scheduled to assist election officers in conducting elections. The Secretary of State’s office, Associated School Boards of South Dakota and the South Dakota Municipal League will again co-sponsor workshops covering all aspects of elections – from notices to the final canvass –including question-and-answer sessions.

Municipal finance officers and school business managers have statutory responsibility to conduct elections in their local jurisdictions. Properly conducted elections are an integral part of the democratic process. The many hours of diligent work on the part of the election officers enhances candidate and voter participation, and provides for accurate and consistent elections.

Election officers may choose to attend one of the following three election workshops:
