MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Voters are sending Democrat Keith Ellison back to Congress for a fifth term representing Minnesota’s urban 5th District.
Ellison defeated Republican businessman Doug Daggett and Independence Party candidate Lee Bauer, a machinist.
Ellison was the first Muslim elected to the U.S. House and the first black elected to Congress from Minnesota. He’s been a champion for progressive causes and speaks out frequently on Mideast and African issues.
The 5th District, which includes Minneapolis and several inner suburbs, is the most heavily Democratic congressional district in the state.
