ROSEBUD, S.D. - Linda Marshall was elected to a 2-year term as Tribal Secretary during the General Election last week, a position she held during 2009-2013.
Wayne Boyd will remain as Tribal Treasurer for an additional 2-year term since he was the only candidate to file. 10 tribal council representatives were elected to 3-year terms.
Turnout for the August 24 General Election saw 1,977 ballots case reservation wide, slightly less than the 2,041 who voted in the July election. Tribal voters went for continuity and elected 5 incumbent representatives to serve a 2nd term.
They are Rita Means, Shizue LaPointe, Lila Kills In Sight, Kathleen Wooden Knife and Richard Smokey Whipple.
Newcomers elected to the tribal council are Steve Brave and Eileen Shot. Both have been employed with the Rosebud Sioux Tribe for many years.
Reps who’ve served previous council terms from their respective communities are Russel Eagle Bear, Byron Barney Andrews and Steven L. DeNoyer.
Tribal voters also elected 3 school board members to represent St. Francis Indian School. They are Don Skeeter Leader Charge, Henry Quick Bear, Sr. and Lynne Colombe.
A challenge period ends on Friday, September 1 at 1pm. The Election Board will meet at that time to certify the results as official and move to seat the winners. The newly elected representatives will be sworn in on September 5.
