Regan Bollweg officially announced his candidacy for South Dakota House of Representatives in District 24.
“It would be a privilege to represent the people of District 24 in the State House,” Bollweg said. “I’m running because I believe in the future of our communities and our state. South Dakota succeeds when we support our farmers and ranchers, invest in strong schools, and ensure our teachers and state employees are fairly compensated.”
A lifelong resident of District 24, Bollweg will graduate from South Dakota State University in May with a Bachelor’s Degree in Agricultural Business and a minor in Political Science. He also served with distinction as a student senator. After graduation, Regan will return to his family’s hunting and farming operation in rural Hughes County.
“I want to bring a strong voice for rural communities, agriculture, and the families and businesses of central South Dakota to the State Capitol,” Bollweg said. “District 24 deserves leadership that understands both our rural roots and the importance of our capital city.”
District 24 includes Haakon, Hughes, Hyde, Stanley, and Sully counties.
Absentee voting begins April 17, 2026. The Republican primary election will be held June 2, 2026.
