Craig vs Flanagan Senate Showdown

Minnesota’s Senate race heats up as Angie Craig and Peggy Flanagan face off in their first live debate, vying for the DFL nomination after Senator Tina Smith’s exit. Flanagan, officially endorsed by the party, skipped the endorsement process, while Craig’s campaign remains strong financially—with $4.8M in cash versus Flanagan’s $1.1M. Public opinion is split: Flanagan is more recognizable but carries higher disapproval ratings. With DFL resources likely backing Flanagan, this debate could shape the August primary and November general election. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
