7. Do you live in this district . . .

Or nearby? I do. I love Joe Biden and appreciate almost everything he has done. Even though I'd love it if he'd kick Bibi to the curb. (Sounds like that might be in process . . . .)

That being said, I cannot stand Don Samuels. This is based on the last time he ran for this Congressional seat and his record as a member of the Minneapolis City Council. He also gets large donations from Republicans. I don't trust him.

Ilhan Omar has made a number of mistakes, but as my congress person she has been very responsive (you know, constituent service) and every time I've written or contacted her, she has responded. As for the "uncommitted campaign" this has been a tactic to get humanitarian aid into Gaza and it seems to be working. (I must say, I love the way Joe responds to people. May turn out to be best president in my lifetime!)
