Updated Scorecard
Several folks have been asking us for an updated version of the scorecard that contains Democrat votes on the same group of bills.
As a response to that request, we have added the scores of several Democrat legislators to the scorecard as well, so that GOP voters can see not only how their local legislators compare to other GOP legislators, but how they voted compared to some of the Democrat legislators as well. We hope this updated scorecard for the S.D. House is useful for that purpose. A similar version for the S.D. Senate will be available shortly and we encourage you to check this site for that later today.

We would also like to point out that many of the planks in the GOP platform are consistent with principles expressed in the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution.
In view of that fact, we offer our thanks to legislators from BOTH PARTIES who cast votes in accordance with the principles enshrined in the Bill of Rights and Declaration of Independence. These rights include the right to life and liberty, the right to be secure in our persons and property, and the right to free expression and self defense.
