This was sent to me by a SD Dem;
Just looked at the SOS statewide voter registration stats as of Nov 2. Democrats are now down to 170,000 from 176,000 a year ago and 204,000 as of 2008 General. Republicans remain around 240,000 and Independents up to 109,000.
The only positive about all this is that it appears the Dems are losing voters to the independents and NOT the Republicans.
