2052 United States presidential election in South Dakota



The 2052 United States presidential election in South Dakota was held on Tuesday, November 5, 2052, as part of the 2052 United States presidential election. The Republican ticket of Abdul O'Shea and Dolores Andres won the state with 67.12% of the vote and a 39.12% margin of victory.

This was the first time Clay County, home to the University of South Dakota, voted Republican in a presidential race since 1984. However, she held Minnehaha County, home to the state's largest city Sioux Falls; the county last voted Republican in 2024, and Les won it in this election by a narrow 2% margin (48%-46%.)

Les performed more strongly in the traditionally conservative West River region of South Dakota than the East River region, showing how entrenched the shifts towards the Republican Party in the rural Midwest and Great Plains had become by 2052.
