Congressional 8th District Race

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnesota%27s_8th_congressional_district

The 8th Congressional District covers a huge part of north central and northeastern MN, from the northern suburbs of the Twin Cities to the Canadian border.  On the eve of election day, we have some final thoughts from the main party candidates running for the 8th District seat in Congress - Republican Pete Stauber from Duluth, and DFLer Joe Radinovich from Crosby.

Sarah Bignall spoke with Radinovich and Stauber about campaign finance reform, the effects of BIG money on politics and each candidate got a last minute appeal to undecided voters.

Election information including poll locations is available at the Minnesota Secretary of State Page.

Sarah Bignall has led KAXE through a period of bold growth and recognition since becoming CEO/General Manager in 2022, including being named Ampers 2025 Station of the Year. Under her leadership, the station’s award-winning newsroom has expanded local coverage across Northern Minnesota and elevated KAXE’s digital reach to record levels. She’s also been sought out by outlets like KARE11, the Star Tribune, MinnPost, and Politico to speak on the far-reaching effects of CPB funding cuts on rural public media.
