Minnehaha County Commissioner and Auditor clash over 2024 elections

SIOUX FALLS, S.D.(KELO)- A month after the election, and Minnehaha County Commissioners and County Auditor Leah Anderson are still disputing her handling of the 2024 vote.

Commissioner Joe Kippley is her primary detractor…criticizing what he called a disorganized legislative race recount in District 15.

Candidate Joni Tschetter lost the election by just nine votes after the recount, but thanked the Auditor’s office for what she called their “tireless efforts” in the process.
