House Apportionment Plan Faces Senate Debate
The House rejected a Senate reapportionment bill proposal and sent its own plan, preserving 35 senators and 58 representatives but redrawing 58 districts into 58 district slots across South Dakota counties. The Senate's plan kept three-county districts with two senators in a few cases, while the House added one senator for Lawrence and one for Butte and Harding, sparking ongoing cross-chamber negotiations.
