amend provisions pertaining to conducting a municipal or school district election and to declare an emergency.

SB 34 clarifies voting rules and election procedures for South Dakota municipalities and school districts. It defines key terms like "in conjunction with" (timing) and "combined with" (shared responsibilities), and updates residency requirements for voters (requiring actual residence in the municipality, with exceptions for students and military members with local home of record). The bill specifies when voter challenges can be made - only through established procedures (§ 12-18-10) - and adjusts notice requirements, mandating weekly publication of election notices for two weeks before elections, with specific timing windows. It applies directly to local election officials and voters in municipal/school district elections.
