State Senator Brandon Wipf Announces Campaign to Continue Serving District 22
HURON, S.D. – Today, State Senator Brandon Wipf announced his campaign to continue serving District 22 in the South Dakota State Senate. Wipf was appointed by Governor Rhoden earlier this year, following the resignation of former Senator David Wheeler, who was appointed to the Third Judicial Circuit Court.
“Serving in the State Senate has already been a tremendous honor,” Wipf said. “In the short time since my appointment, I have had the privilege of meeting with so many constituents across District 22 who are deeply invested in South Dakota’s future. Their perspective and passion have strengthened my determination to continue serving them.”
Wipf has been a strong advocate for South Dakota agriculture at both the state and national levels. After serving on the South Dakota Soybean Association board, he was elected to the American Soybean Association in 2017, where he became known as a steady, effective leader, representing producers in national media, testifying before Congress, and working internationally to advance U.S. agricultural trade.
He also played a key leadership role in Commodity Classic, one of the nation’s premier farmer-led trade shows, helping grow its reach and impact. Across the industry, Wipf is recognized as a coalition builder who brings people together to deliver results.
If elected, Wipf plans to strengthen the agricultural economy, expand workforce opportunities, and keep government limited and accountable. His priorities include supporting rural infrastructure, promoting fair markets for producers, and ensuring families have the environment they need to grow deep roots, reflecting his commitment to individual liberty, personal faith, and the dignity of hard work.
A graduate of James Valley Christian School and Dordt College with a degree in electrical engineering, Wipf farms alongside his parents on their family operation south of Doland. He lives in rural Huron with his wife, Mandy, an engineer and U.S. Air Force veteran.
District 22 includes Beadle, Clark, and Spink counties.
Absentee voting begins on April 17, 2026, and the Republican Primary Election is on June 2, 2026.
