Minnehaha County commissioners are pressing Governor Mike Rounds to do something about the state's new license plate registration system that has created what they called a state of emergency.

The auditor says the long lines have prompted two county workers to quit over the frustration.

The computer system that went online July 1 changed the way tags are registered so the plates stay with the person instead of the vehicle.

In a letter to Rounds, commissioners described a "chaotic situation" at the administration building and directed blame at the state.

A spokesman says the governor was briefed on the situation and urged the Department of Revenue and Regulation and the Department of Motor Vehicles to try to fix the problem.
