In states like that, the Rep. seat is a state wide office, just like the two Senators.

South Dakota only has one US representative in Congress because there are only about 800,000 people in South Dakota. Each US state has one US Representative, then the rest are determined by population. The total number of voting representatives allowed by law is 435.
We elect people to represent us, therefore, it is a representative democracy.
