Teen Contestants

People's Choice Award Online Voting!

At this year’s pageant we are holding a special online competition called the People’s Choice! We will be collecting your votes with the help of our voting partner, The Pageant Planet, for your favorite contestant for the People’s Choice in both the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA divisions. This year, the People’s Choice Winners will be guaranteed a spot as a FINALIST in the Pageant Finals! Voting will take place online and the winners of the People’s Choice for each division will be revealed during the announcement of the finalists as well as recognized during the awards portion near the end of the Pageant Finals!

Any funding raised during the People’s Choice Voting will be split between the titleholder preparation fund to cover various expenses incurred by the state pageant during the titleholders’ preparations for the national pageant, as well as the general production budget for staffing and staging of the state pageant. During this year’s pageant, if the contestant numbers dictate, it may be decided by the judging panel to allow all the state contestants to advance to the Pageant Finals. If so, the winners of the People’s Choice voting will still be announced at the start of the Pageant Finals as well as recognized during the awards portion near the end of the show.

My parents and family have been my biggest supporters. They have helped shape me into the woman I am today, and for that I continue to be grateful for their love and support in this journey. To my Leo's Legacy Board, thank you for helping me along this exciting adventure. I am always amazed by how passionate our team is. Helping families afford organ transplantation while honoring Leo is a blessing. Sally, thank you for allowing me to share Leo's story. You have helped me understand how organ donation affects both the receiving and the giving families. Thank you to everyone that has supported me along the way while I have prepared to compete for Miss South Dakota Teen USA.
