This bill establishes a framework for the recall of county commissioners in South Dakota. It allows voters to remove a county commissioner from office at any time, provided that a petition is filed. The petition must be signed by either fifteen percent of the registered voters in the commissioner's district or five percent of the registered voters in the entire county, depending on the commissioner's jurisdiction. The petition must also include specific grounds for removal, such as misconduct or incompetency, and must be filed within a certain timeframe to be valid.

Once a valid petition is submitted, the county auditor is required to present it to the county commission, and a special election must be held within sixty days to determine the commissioner's successor. If the commissioner is re-elected in this special election, they remain in office; if not, they are removed, and the newly elected successor will serve the remainder of the term. The bill also outlines the process for challenging the petition and the grounds for removal, ensuring a structured approach to the recall process.
