South Dakota
Congressional Delegation
South Dakota's 3-member congressional delegation is made up of 3 Republicans across 2 Senate seats and 1 House seat. Click any member below to view their full profile, sponsored legislation, and election history.
South Dakota sends 1 member to the U.S. House of Representatives and two Senators to the U.S. Senate, for a 3-member delegation in the 119th Congress — currently 3 Republicans. Because House seats are reapportioned only once a decade based on the U.S. Census, South Dakota's 1 House seat is fixed through the 2030 census — that same apportionment sets South Dakota's 3 electoral votes for president: one per House seat, plus one for each of its two Senators.
South Dakota became the 40th state to join the Union, in 1889, and its capital is Pierre. State-level lawmaking happens in the South Dakota Legislature, made up of a 70-seat House of Representatives (2-year terms) and a 35-seat Senate (2-year terms).
