Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar won reelection in Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District, the Associated Press projected. The New York Post reports she led Republican John Nagel, a veteran state trooper, about 76 percent to 16 percent with nearly all ballots counted. The race took place during a federal investigation into whether Omar committed immigration fraud, which reports describe as ongoing. Critics claim she married a man in 2009 to help him obtain immigration status.
