Flanagan, who has served as Gov. Tim Walz's lieutenant governor since 2019, was backed by Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Ilhan Omar. Craig, a moderate, had drawn support from AIPAC.

The win extends a progressive winning streak in the Upper Midwest, following Abdul El-Sayed's Senate primary victory in Michigan last week. Flanagan, who is Native American, could become the first Native woman elected to the U.S. Senate.
