Minnesota Democrats will decide on Tuesday whether the party’s next Senate nominee comes from its progressive wing or pragmatic center, making the race the latest test of an increasingly consequential battle over the Democratic Party‘s direction after its 2024 election losses.

The contest between Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN) and Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan comes just days after Abdul el Sayed defeated Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) in Michigan’s Democratic Senate primary.
