Last update: 4 hours ago

Sioux Falls Politics: The Sioux Falls mayoral runoff recount board is set to begin Wednesday after the board was finalized, with Christine Erickson declared winner by just two votes over Jamie Smith. Local Elections: As the governor’s race heads to a July 28 GOP runoff, Sioux Falls Mayor Paul TenHaken endorsed Gov. Larry Rhoden, praising his “morals, ethics, faith or character,” and citing major state accomplishments from their time together. Public Safety: Pennington County is scrambling for a long-term funding plan for rural ambulance service after hearing Rapid City Fire could end coverage for unincorporated areas after Dec. 31, 2026, unless a new agreement is reached. Weather & Water: Eastern South Dakota faces a serious flash-flood threat as heavy rain rates push toward 3 inches per hour and totals near 6 inches.
