In the meantime, the ACLU SD has a few recommendations to be prepared to vote, get your vote counted, and make sure your voice is heard:

• Check your voter registration status - The Deadline to be registered in South Dakota is October 24, 2016.
• Find your polling place - Poles in South Dakota will be open from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM on election day.
• Consider voting early or absentee if possible. If you plan to vote at the polls, go early in the day to avoid the last-minute rush.
• Make sure your ID is valid and up to date.
• If anyone challenges you about voting, don't get mad - get help.
