When is the South Dakota, United States, midterm elections 2026?

Polling day is 2026-11-03 (officially set).

When will the final result of the U.S. House race be official?

Expected between 2026-11-10T15:00:00Z and 2026-11-21T05:59:59Z (UTC), confidence announced. State canvass: "Within seven days after the day of election, the Board of State Canvassers shall open and examine the returns from each county. However, if the returns from each county have not been received, the board may adjourn, not exceeding ten days, for the purpose of obtaining the returns" (SDCL 12-20-47). The board — the Governor or designee, the chief justice or designee, and the Secretary of State, in the presence of the Attorney General — canvasses the votes for representatives in Congress, U.S. Senators and state officers (SDCL 12-20-46) and signs an abstract "stating whom they declare to be elected" (SDCL 12-20-48). The SoS 2026 Election Calendar sets the meeting deadline as Tuesday 10 Nov 2026; the window closes at the end of 20 Nov 2026, Central time (Pierre), allowing the full ten-day adjournment. Precedent: the Board of Canvassers certified the 2022 general-election canvass on 15 Nov 2022, 7 days after polling day (certificate sworn "this 15th day of November 2022", SoS 2022 General State Canvass Report). Recounts: a defeated candidate voted on in more than one county whose margin does not exceed one-fourth of one percent of the total vote for the office may petition the Secretary of State within three days after the state canvass (SDCL 12-21-12; 13 Nov 2026 if the canvass is on 10 Nov, per the SoS calendar); a tie found on the canvass triggers an automatic recount (SDCL 12-21-16). A contest must be commenced within ten days after the official canvass, or within five days after a recount that reverses the result (SDCL 12-22-5).

Polls are open from 7:00 a.m. "until seven p.m., standard time or daylight savings time, whichever is in effect" (SDCL 12-2-3; SoS 2026 Election Calendar: "7:00 p.m. local time"). South Dakota spans two zones: the eastern counties (including Sioux Falls and Pierre) are on Central time and close at 7:00 PM CST = 01:00 UTC; the western counties are on Mountain time and close last, at 7:00 PM MST = 02:00 UTC on 4 Nov. "No public disclosure of the returns of state and federal elections ... is permitted until each precinct polling place in the state is closed" (SDCL 12-20-17), so unofficial results start at 02:00 UTC. County auditors tabulate returns "as rapidly as received" and enter each precinct into the central election reporting system (SDCL 12-20-13). The window closes at 6:00 AM CST on 4 Nov: an estimate of when the overnight count stops moving, not a published time and not a measured 2022 figure. Absentee ballots delivered after the polls close may not be counted (SDCL 12-19-12); provisional ballots are counted at or before the county canvass (SDCL 12-20-13.2, 12-20-13.3).

Provisional ballots are counted by a board that convenes one hour before the canvassing board (SDCL 12-20-13.2) or at an earlier noticed time (SDCL 12-20-13.3), and the county auditor "shall immediately transmit" a certified copy of the official county canvass to the Secretary of State for the state canvass (SDCL 12-20-38.1). The window opens on 5 Nov (an estimate of the earliest county canvasses; the statute sets only the deadline) and closes at the end of 9 Nov, Mountain time, the later of the state's two zones.

State canvass: "Within seven days after the day of election, the Board of State Canvassers shall open and examine the returns from each county. However, if the returns from each county have not been received, the board may adjourn, not exceeding ten days, for the purpose of obtaining the returns" (SDCL 12-20-47). The board — the Governor or designee, the chief justice or designee, and the Secretary of State, in the presence of the Attorney General — canvasses the votes for representatives in Congress, U.S. Senators and state officers (SDCL 12-20-46) and signs an abstract "stating whom they declare to be elected" (SDCL 12-20-48). The SoS 2026 Election Calendar sets the meeting deadline as Tuesday 10 Nov 2026; the window closes at the end of 20 Nov 2026, Central time (Pierre), allowing the full ten-day adjournment. Precedent: the Board of Canvassers certified the 2022 general-election canvass on 15 Nov 2022, 7 days after polling day (certificate sworn "this 15th day of November 2022", SoS 2022 General State Canvass Report). Recounts: a defeated candidate voted on in more than one county whose margin does not exceed one-fourth of one percent of the total vote for the office may petition the Secretary of State within three days after the state canvass (SDCL 12-21-12; 13 Nov 2026 if the canvass is on 10 Nov, per the SoS calendar); a tie found on the canvass triggers an automatic recount (SDCL 12-21-16). A contest must be commenced within ten days after the official canvass, or within five days after a recount that reverses the result (SDCL 12-22-5).
