A Republican, he was a candidate to become U.S. Representative from South Dakota's At-large congressional district in 2010 but lost to Kristi Noem in the Republican primary. CareerNelson gained prominence as a key constitutional figure in any possible replacement of Democratic U.S. Senator Tim Johnson, who suffered stroke-like bleeding in the brain caused by a congenital malformation known as arteriovenous malformation. In the event of the office being "vacant" (through death or incapacitation; the definition and meaning of which is subject to various interpretations by constitutional law experts[1]), South Dakota law provides for the governor to name a replacement. Johnson declined to run for re-election for health reasons[2] and was succeeded by the former Governor of South Dakota Mike Rounds, a Republican. AwardsAs secretary of state, Nelson received the 2010 Excellent Service to South Dakota County Officials award from the South Dakota County Officials Association; the 2004 Hazeltine/Taylor award from South Dakota Kids Voting; and the 2003 Excellence in South Dakota Municipal Government award from the South Dakota Municipal League. In 2005, he was appointed as a National Governors Association representative on the United States Election Assistance Commission Board of Advisors.[3] References1. ^[https://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2006-12-14-johnson-gov_x.htm Jonathan Ellis, S.D. governor would name person to fill Johnson vacancy], usatoday.com; accessed January 2, 2017. 2. ^South Dakota U.S. Senator In Critical Condition After Surgery, abclocal.go.com, December 14, 2006. 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://puc.sd.gov/chrisnelsonbio/default.aspx|title=Commissioner Chris Nelson|publisher=}} External links
