South Dakota Republicans offer bill to shorten early voting period

Republican lawmakers in South Dakota have introduced a bill to shorten the early voting process from 46 days to 14, KELO reported Thursday.

One of the bill’s co-sponsors, state Rep. Carl Perry, told the outlet he believes the early voting period is too long.

The bill proposes a two-week voting period, but Perry said he is willing to negotiate on the length.

Thirty-nine states plus the District of Columbia offer some sort of early voting,, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. The average early voting period lasts 19 days.
