The NDP won a majority government in the provincial election of 1990, and Klopp defeated Progressive Conservative candidate Ken Campbell by 954 votes in Huron.[4] He served as parliamentary assistant to Agriculture Minister Elmer Buchanan from 1990 to 1995, the entirety of the Rae government's tenure in office. In early 1994, he announced that Huron and Perth Counties would receive almost two million dollars in jobsOntario grants.[5]

The NDP were defeated in the provincial election of 1995, and Klopp finished third in Huron against Progressive Conservative Helen Johns.[6][7] He returned to municipal politics after his defeat, and was deputy mayor of Bluewater for two terms from 2001 until 2006.[8] In 2006, he lost a close election for deputy mayor to Dave Johnston.[8]

He ran again for the NDP in the Huron-Bruce riding in the 2007 provincial election. He came third with 13% of the vote.[9][10]

Klopp was again elected Deputy Mayor of the Municipality of Bluewater in 2010, defeating the incumbent, Dave Johnson, by about 700 votes.[11][12] As member of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture, he is the past president of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture, past regional director, and director at large and chair of the finance committee.[9] In his local community, Klopp is the past president and current board member of Zurich Agricultural Society, board member of Huron County Pork Producers, Director of Hay Communications and committee member of Ontario Soybean Growers’ Marketing Board.[9]
