(Dakota News Now) - UPDATE, 2:25 p.m.: A bill that would require birth certificates to reflect biological sex in South Dakota has been revived in the legislature. The House of Representatives on Tuesday moved to “smoke out” House Bill 1076 after the measure was defeated by a legislative committee earlier that day. The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Fred Deutsch of Florence, moved to invoke legislative rule 7-7 on the floor of the House Tuesday afternoon. This rule - also known as a “smoke out” - requires a committee to deliver a bill to the full body of the chamber if at least one-third of the chamber’s members support the move. Deutch’s action got the required votes, thus reviving the bill.

(Dakota News Now) - Online voter registration appears off the table again for South Dakota. The South Dakota Senate Committee on State Affairs watered down Senate Bill 24. In its original form, the bill was intended to allow residents of South Dakota to register to vote online. South Dakota is one of only nine states in the country where you cannot register to vote online. South Dakota has 22,344 eligible voters not currently registered. Secretary of State Steve Barnett, a Republican, had brought the bill before the legislature a number of times, along with the State Board of Elections. However, they have never successfully passed it, or any version of it.
