SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — We are just days from the election, and each side of Amendment G is ensuring their voices are heard.

Opponents of Amendment G gathered at Riverside Park in Sioux Falls this morning. Taylor Van Emmerik, the state chair for South Dakota College Republicans, helped organize the rally.

“We’re doing a little door-knocking event right before the election. We want to make our voice heard in a last-ditch effort to get some of our great state representatives, our state senators. We have ‘No on G’ stuff out here, we have some ‘No on H.’ Just wanted to get out there and educate voters before they make their decision on Tuesday,” Van Emmerik said.

U.S. Representative Dusty Johnson attended the rally.

“When I look at something like Amendment G, it is too extreme. I’m not saying our current laws around abortion are perfect. I would tell you, though, Amendment G wipes away all of the protections we have for women and all of the protections we have for children. We can do better than Amendment G,” Dusty Johnson said.

A few hours later, supporters of Amendment G met at Lyon Park then marched along Phillips Avenue.

“We’re gathering here today in Sioux Falls to make a beautiful noise. We’re going to raise our voices in support of Amendment G. We’re marching to show the public all the support there is for Amendment G,” Chair for Coalition for Freedom Amendment G Nancy Turbak Berry said.

Dusty Johnson’s opponent in the South Dakota U.S. House race, Sheryl Johnson, showed her support for Amendment G.

“I had a daughter who almost died from a miscarriage because she was delayed care when she needed it, and we’ve seen women die in states already because they’re not being given the care they need when they need it. It does not mean we are pro-abortion. It means that we are pro ‘keep the government out of women’s health care decisions,'” Sheryl Johnson said.

As Election Day nears, both sides are encouraging South Dakotans to get out and vote.

“We’ve got four more days until the election is over, and we need folks to not only vote, but to be sure they’re motivating other people to vote,” Berry said.

“I would just love to encourage people to get out and vote if they haven’t already. It’s very important to make your voice heard this election,” Van Emmerik said.
