CORRECTION
By Dave Baumeister
County correspondent
In last week’s paper when we published the profiles of the Republican party County Commission primary candidates, we wrote that the primary election would also be the final election for county commissioners; however, that was incorrect.
We checked the South Dakota Secretary of State’s website for candidate information after the deadline for independent candidates to file, but an independent candidate did file on the final day, April 30, and her information had not been updated on the website at the time the profiles were put together.
We humbly apologize for this unintentional omission.
So regardless of how the primary election for Minnehaha County Commission turns out, there will be a race for those seats in the November general election.
Independent candidate Anny Libengood of Sioux Falls did file her petitions prior to the deadline and will be running against the two primary election Republican winners, whomever they may be.
Again, we are sorry for the mistake.
