Members of the Oglala Sioux Tribe of South Dakota will vote in the general election on November 7 despite a mixup in the primary.

The tribal council voted 10-5 to hold the general election as planned. Election board members say a ballot misprint during the October 3 primary wouldn't have changed the outcome.

The misprint affected one council race. The results for president and other tribal posts were not affected, according to the election board.

That means ousted president Cecilia Fire Thunder, who was removed for criticized the state's restrictive abortion law, won't be on the ballot. Incumbent president Alex White Plume will face former president John Yellow Bird Steele in the election.
