A resolution that would allow South Dakotans to vote on whether they want mobile sports betting in the state passed out of committee and is now headed to the Senate floor.

Senate Joint Resolution 504 would place on the next general election ballot a question that, if approved, would amend the South Dakota Constitution to allow wagering on sporting events via mobile or electronic platforms.

Currently, the only places in South Dakota that allow sports gambling are within the city limits of Deadwood and at two tribal casinos. If passed by voters, the resolution would allow platforms such as DraftKings to operate within the state.

The resolution passed the committee on a 4-3 vote. South Dakota has a population of less than 900,000, and no big four pro sports teams, but that doesn’t mean any operator offering South Dakota sports betting facilities will struggle to drum up interest.
