MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Abortion was a key issue in two suburban Minnesota congressional races as Democratic U.S. Rep. Angie Craig won a fourth term Tuesday, while an OB-GYN doctor won an open seat to keep it in Democratic hands as well. Craig beat Republican former federal prosecutor Joe Teirab, while Dr. Kelly Morrison, a former state senator, defeated Republican former Judge Tad Jude to take the seat being vacated by Democratic U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips. Craig represents the 2nd District, which had been considered Minnesota’s sole swing district, but she won it by her biggest margin yet as she stressed her support for abortion rights.
