SENATOR GANT ANNOUNCES PLAN FOR VOTER FRAUD HOTLINE

Sioux Falls, SD – Senator Jason Gant, Republican candidate for Secretary of State, announced today his plan for a Voter Fraud Hotline phone number.

The plan would entail establishing a statewide Voter Fraud Hotline number that would be posted prominently at every voting location across South Dakota. The hotline number would allow anyone who suspects possible voter fraud to notify the Secretary of State.

“It is the responsibility of all South Dakotans to ensure voter fraud does not take over South Dakota. We must preserve the integrity of our elections,” said Senator Gant.

Other jurisdictions have successfully implemented similar Voter Fraud Hotlines. Throughout the United States, utilization of voter fraud hotlines has increased as the need has grown to counter voter fraud.

"South Dakota has a long history of self governance and independence. The thought of outside special interest groups coming into South Dakota to influence our elections is just wrong,” added Senator Gant.

“As South Dakota’s next Secretary of State, I believe it is necessary to be proactive when it comes to possible voter fraud activities,” said Senator Gant.

Senator Jason Gant was first elected to the State Senate in 2004 and reelected in 2006 and 2008. Senator Gant won the Republican nomination for Secretary of State at the State Republican Convention in June 2010. Senator Gant owns his own healthcare consulting company. Jason is married to Chris who is a nurse practitioner, and they have three daughters, Abbi (7), Sophie (5), and Mallory (2).
