Angie Craig Battles to Keep House Seat as Midterms Approach

The Minnesota Congresswoman Faces a Tight Re-election Race

Rep. Angie Craig has won three terms in Minnesota's 2nd Congressional District, but now she faces one of her toughest challenges yet.

Angie Craig of the democratic party has been serving Minnesota's 2nd Congressional District since 2019. After winning three terms, she is now facing a competitive re-election race.

Craig's main challenger is Republican Tyler Kistner, a former Navy pilot and businessman. Kistner lost to Craig by just 2 percentage points in the 2020 election.

The race is expected to be close, as the district is evenly divided between Democrats and Republicans. In 2020, Biden won the district by just 1 percentage point.

Craig's Campaign Focuses on Healthcare, Economy, and Education

Craig's campaign has focused on issues such as healthcare, the economy, and education. She has pledged to protect access to affordable healthcare, invest in infrastructure and education, and support small businesses.

Kistner, on the other hand, has focused on issues such as inflation, crime, and illegal immigration. He has pledged to cut taxes, reduce government spending, and support law enforcement.

Polls Show a Tight Race

Recent polls show that the race is very close. A poll conducted by the Star Tribune in September 2022 showed that Craig had a slight lead over Kistner, 49% to 46%.

However, the race is still considered to be a toss-up. Anything could happen between now and Election Day.

The Outcome of the Race Will Have National Implications

The outcome of the race could have national implications. If Craig wins, she will help Democrats maintain control of the House of Representatives.

If Kistner wins, he will help Republicans gain control of the House. This could have a significant impact on the Biden administration's agenda.
