SD Sec. of State Monae Johnson subpoenaed by GOAC

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) - South Dakota Secretary of State Monae Johnson has been subpoenaed by the state Government Operations and Audit Committee.

On Thursday morning, ten lawmakers on that committee voted unanimously to subpoena Johnson to appear before them.

They want to hear from the Secretary of State regarding a controversial contract with a company called “KNOWiNK LLC,” a provider of electronic poll book software.

Johnson has reportedly failed “many times” to report to the committee regarding the contract.

The subpoena now requires her to appear before the committee.

The date of that appearance has not yet been determined.
