Representative Rebecca Reimer Announces Candidacy for State Senate in District 26
OACOMA, S.D. – Today, State Representative Rebecca Reimer announced her candidacy for the South Dakota State Senate in District 26, pledging to continue serving with excellence and putting the people of District 26 first.
“It has been an honor to represent District 26B for almost eight years in the State House,” said Reimer. “I’m more determined than ever to continue serving in an even greater capacity because I believe deeply in the people of District 26 and in what we can accomplish together.”
Throughout her legislative service, Reimer has built a strong record of leadership and policy expertise across major committees, including State Affairs, Judiciary, Education, Health and Human Services, and Local Government. In the upcoming session, she will transition from the Health and Human Services Committee to the Taxation Committee, where she will continue advocating for lower taxes, fiscal responsibility, and the careful stewardship of taxpayer dollars.
If elected to the State Senate, Reimer will continue championing the priorities that matter most to District 26. She will stand with agriculture and the farmers and ranchers who drive the rural economy. She will work to grow small businesses and keep opportunities local. She will strengthen access to healthcare and essential services close to home, especially in rural and underserved areas. She will continue backing law enforcement and reinforcing the partnerships that keep communities safe. She will empower parents, teachers, and local schools so every child has the opportunity to succeed. And she will protect secure, transparent elections worthy of voters’ trust.
Reimer’s long-standing involvement in community service, youth programs, and local leadership reflects her deep commitment to building strong communities where families can live, work, and raise their children.
Reimer is a wife, mother, and small business owner. She lives in Oacoma with her family.
Absentee voting begins April 17, 2026. The Republican Primary Election will be held on June 2, 2026.
District 26 includes Brule, Buffalo, Hughes, Hyde, Jones, Lyman, Mellette, and Todd counties.
