South Dakota Legislature Repeals Some Restrictions on Initiative Circulators

On March 25, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem signed SB 180. It repeals a law that said initiative circulators must register with the Secretary of State, and the registry would be public information. The circulator’s address, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, and whether the circulator is a registered sex offender, would all be contained in the registry.

This law was declared unconstitutional early this year in SD Voice v Noem, 1:19cv-1017.
