The South Dakota Legislature today unanimously confirmed Tony Venhuizen as the state’s new Lieutenant Governor.
The House voted 67-to-0, and the Senate 35-to-0 to approve Governor Larry Rhoden’s pick for the position.
Venhuizen, a former chief of staff to Governor Dennis Daugaard, was sworn in immediately after the votes and will now serve as President of the Senate.
