This bill establishes a process for the recall of county commissioners in South Dakota. It allows voters eligible to elect a commissioner to remove them from office at any time. A petition for removal must be signed by either 15% of the registered voters in the commissioner's district or 5% of the registered voters in the entire county if the commissioner represents the whole county. The petition must include the signer's residence, date of signing, and a statement alleging at least one of the specified grounds for removal, such as corruption or misconduct. The State Board of Elections will prescribe the petition form, and if the petition meets the requirements, it will be presented at the next board meeting.

Additionally, a special election must be held within 60 days of the petition submission, unless it coincides with an upcoming primary or general election. The commissioner facing removal may run for re-election, and if no other candidates are nominated, the recall election will not occur. The bill also outlines the procedure for challenging the petition and specifies that if a commissioner is re-elected in the special election, they remain in office until a successor is qualified. The successor will serve the remainder of the removed commissioner's term.
