Senator Hoffman Accuses Craig of Endorsement Push | Fargo News

Senator John Hoffman is accusing Congresswoman Angie Craig of making unwanted endorsement requests while he was recovering in the ICU after a deadly shooting that wounded him, his wife, and their daughter. He says a friend of Craig’s visited him twice — once in the hospital and again at home — to ask for his support, which he claims came directly from Craig. Craig’s campaign denies the allegations, calling them “categorically false,” and points to text messages from June showing Craig offering only sympathy after the attack. Hoffman insists the outreach was political, not personal, and that Craig’s opponent, Peggy Flanagan, was the only one to reach out without asking for anything. The controversy has reignited debate over political conduct and accountability, with Hoffman demanding his family’s trauma be acknowledged without distortion.
