Minnesota Primary Election results: Congressional District 5
Fox 9 ^ | August 9, 2022 | FOX 9 Staff

In Minnesota's Fifth Congressional District, U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar faces a Democratic primary challenger in a race where crime has emerged as the biggest issue.

Omar's challenger, former Minneapolis City Council member Don Samuels, opposes the movement to defund the police and last year helped defeat efforts to replace the city's police department. Omar, who supported the referendum, has a substantial money advantage and is expected to benefit from a strong grassroots operation.

On the Republican primary ballot, Cicely Davis and Royce White are seeking the GOP nomination.

A freakin’ Muslim “refugee” in Congress. No wonder nobody respects that outhouse anymore. It turned into a real Turd Wurld crapper.

Until MN gets an honest Secretary of State, Ilhan will continue to be in office. I’d like to count the real votes.

Also, why no news on the Hennepin County Atty race?

Like most blue states only the big cities are blue.

Those of us in rocks and cows county (what walz calls outstate MN) don’t deserve this.

The results were much closer than I thought! I thought Omar would get at least 70% of the vote.

Dem combined vote is over 100,000, GOP combined vote is less than 10,000, not likely.

Close, but no cigar. Another 2 years for the Islamo-fascist poster child

Maybe not, but cities are where people live and their vote counts as much as yours, so until the trance of the democrat party is broken with these voters, you will continue to get it good and hard.

Maybe we could get the Dems who didn’t vote for Omar and see if they could vote for the Republican. I mean, 50,000 plus people voted for Samuels so maybe crime is an issue there.

I hope so. But the difference in democrats votes and republicans are way beyond doing. Omar would never mention running again and win. Democrats got over 100K votes. Republicans 10K votes.
