Of the 870,638 citizens living in South Dakota in 2019, 656,530 were old enough to vote as of Jan. 26, according to U.S. Census Bureau data.

The bureau reported that 327,305 of those people were female and 329,225 were male.

An agency of the U.S. Federal Statistical System, the Census Bureau is responsible for compiling statistical facts about the American people, places and economy. Data for this story was compiled from the bureau’s American Community Survey. Information from the survey helps to determine how federal and state funds are distributed.

Statistical data for 2020 will be released later this year.
