South Dakota lawmakers propose statewide mobile sports betting amendment
South Dakota lawmakers introduced Senate Joint Resolution 507, proposing a constitutional amendment to allow mobile and electronic sports betting across the state. If voters approve it at the next general election, bets could be placed outside Deadwood through platforms run by or partnered with licensed casinos, with servers located in Deadwood. The proposal directs 90% of tax proceeds from this wagering to property tax relief.
Licensed casinos could offer mobile wagering statewide, subject to voter approval and the proposed Deadwood server requirement.
