Well, it seems that Brian Gosch has successfully avoided any consequences (besides loss of credibility for himself and the State House he presides over).

Madville Times has a good summary. The key thing to learn from this in my opinion was well stated by a commenter on that Madville Times post, and it applies to SOS Gant and Rep Gosch, and anyone else who holds a notary stamp:

Not a proud moment for South Dakota.
