Ilhan Omar Could Be in Election Trouble

Controversial Democratic incumbent Ilhan Omar of Minnesota’s 5th congressional district is up for re-election this year, but she will have her work cut out for her in the primary against not one but three formidable opponents.

Campaigning as a progressive who can work with President Joe Biden, Omar’s Democratic primary opponent is currently tied with the progressive squad member in a rematch race, according to one of the most recent poll.

After trailing Omar by just 2.1 percent in the 2022 primary, former Minneapolis City Council member Don Samuels is taking on Omar once more in the August 13 primary — and it’s shaping up to be a nail-biter.

It happens at the same time that Omar and other alleged members of the “squad” are drawing criticism for encouraging voters to boycott Biden in the Democratic primary because he supported Israel in its conflict with Hamas terrorists based in the Palestinian territory of Gaza.
