Allison Renville announces she’s ending South Dakota gubernatorial campaign
cross-posted from: news.abolish.capital/post/3220…
Amelia Schafer
ICTRAPID CITY, S.D. – Allison Renville, a Native American running for South Dakota governor, is pulling out of the race.
Renville, Sisseton-Wahpeton Dakota, announced in a press release on Feb. 27 that her campaign will be “dissolving,” citing financial uncertainty.
“Running for public office should not require personal wealth or access to elite networks. What I’m going through is just like every other American.” Renville said in the statement. “When candidates with lived experience of housing instability and working-class struggles can’t sustain campaigns, it proves the system is not designed for the common person.”
Although publicly suspending her campaign, Renville has yet to file to officially dissolve her candidacy, according to the South Dakota Secretary of State’s website. The deadline to do so is April 28 for independent candidates.
Through her public Facebook page, Renville has openly discussed financial struggles facing her and her family, ultimately causing her to dissolve her campaign.
Renville’s campaign was centered on her support for strengthening public institutions, tribal sovereignty, governmental transparency and access to healthcare.

Started in on our Account portal implementation. At the moment we fall back to the GTK portal. Still have to build out the UI to select data to share and then actually send the data
github.com/elementary/portals/…
Create Account portal by danirabbit · Pull Request #180 · elementary/portals
Fixes #173 Todo: UI for avatar UI for real name UI for user name Send back dataGitHub
At the moment the portal provides one function for requesting personally identifying information: your username, real name, and avatar.
There’s a proposal for a new separate function that does not contain any personal information for the new age declaration: github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop…
So with our own portal implementation we’ll be able to ship this as soon as we have an agreed upon standard and make sure we comply with the law before Jan 1 2027
Draft: Add parental controls to the Accounts portal by davidedmundson · Pull Request #1922 · flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal
Applications need to filter content to match the age rating of the user. The rating restrictions tend to be location and domain specific without a common ground for where these groupings should be....GitHub
Once things are settled and agreed upon, I’ll make a blog post about how exactly this will work in elementary OS. I know a lot of people are really unsettled or afraid so it’s important to communicate about what is happening and how it all works.
My personal opinion is that I don’t love the idea of age ranking. I’ve avoided it in AppCenter because I think content warnings are a better way to give individuals choice. But it seems legislatively that age ranking is what is demanded so here we are

L'uomo è una bestia, all'atto pratico vince la legge del più forte, e i diritti umani sono un lusso che ti puoi permettere solo quando hai la pancia piena, e sei al sicuro sia tu che i tuoi cari.
Proprio per questo abbiamo inventato patti sociali, costituzioni e wc per regolamentare gli istinti, il diritto internazionale che ci tutela anche quando non siamo i più forti, e la redistribuzione della ricchezza come precondizione per avere la pancia piena nel rispetto dei diritti nostri e altrui.
