"Per South Dakota law, government officials may speak their opinion on candidates or ballot measures in their personal capacity but may not influence the election of a candidate or ballot initiative in their official capacity, and doing so is a felony. New Approach SD Deputy Director Ned Horsted told Dakota News that the group sent information requests to  Sioux Falls Mayor Paul Ten Haken, Minnehaha County Sheriff Mike Milstead,  Rapid City Mayor Steve Allender, and others. The trio was among the  speakers at a press conference in Sioux Falls last week. New Approach’s  information requests are seeking to see whether those officials were “on  the clock” and speaking in their official capacity or using government  social media pages while speaking against the ballot measure. They also had sent requests to  the Pennington County Sheriff’s Department; the Minnehaha County  Sheriff’s Department; the Box Elder Police Department; Rapid City Mayor  Steven Allender; Protecting South Dakota Kids; the South Dakota Police  Chiefs Association; Jim Kinyon, executive director of Catholic Social  Services; the South Dakota Catholic Association; Next Generation  Leadership PAC Administrators; State Rep. Fred Deutsch; Sen. John Thune  and his staff; Gov. Kristi Noem, her staff, and her Communications  Director Ian Fury; State Rep. Scott Odenbach; State Rep. Doug Barthel;  State Rep. Carl Perry; State Sen. Al Novstrup; Lt. Gov. Larry Rhoden and  his staff; State Sen. Helene Duhamel; Pennington County Sheriff Kevin  Thom; Minnehaha County Sheriff Mike Milstead; Pennington County  Sheriff’s Deputy Brian Mueller; Meade County Sheriff-Elect Pat West; and  Rapid City Assistant Police Chief Scott Sitz." - ganjapreneur https://www.ganjapreneur.com/south-dakota-cannabis-advocates-seek-to-determine-whether-state-officials-broke-law-by-speaking-out-against-legalization-measure/
