Ilhan Omar won the DFL endorsement and then the Minnesota primary in her congressional district, putting her on track for another competitive race in Minnesota’s 5th District. She is facing multiple DFL challengers but has a large cash advantage, and the general election is expected to be competitive. Omar has also stayed in the spotlight for her sharp criticism of President Trump’s immigration crackdown and for publicly protesting his State of the Union address. Separately, she has been active in Democratic endorsements, backing Peggy Flanagan in Minnesota’s Senate race and Kat Abughazaleh in Illinois’ 9th District primary.
