Lisa Bogue

Rooted in our Community. Working for District 16.

Lisa Bogue and her husband Marc operate a fifth-generation family farm near Beresford — a town that straddles the Lincoln/Union county line — where she is a Lincoln County resident. A former teacher and tutor, she is also an active 4-H leader, Sunday school teacher, and small business owner with deep roots in southeastern South Dakota. She and Marc are parents of four adult children and proud grandparents. She filed for the District 16 House seat in March 2026, her first run for elected office.

Our Rationale

Why they’re
Sensible

Lisa Bogue brings something rare to Pierre: a candidate who has lived every part of District 16's economy — farming, teaching, and running a small business — across five generations of family roots in southeastern South Dakota. Her campaign centers on responsible stewardship of taxpayer dollars, keeping schools a priority so students graduate workforce-ready, and standing up for family farmers and ranchers. She is a first-time candidate whose civic life — 4-H leader, Sunday school teacher, tutor — reflects the kind of neighbor-first accountability Sensible South Dakota values in Pierre.
