The end of the divisive race between 42-year incumbent Rep. Phyllis Kahn, DFL-Minneapolis, and Somali-born Mohamud Noor to represent the University of Minnesota’s area at the Capitol is on the horizon.
On Tuesday, voters will decide which Democratic-Farmer-Labor candidate has the most support to represent House District 60B at the state Legislature next session. While Noor says the area’s needs are changing and new representation is needed, Kahn says her long, successful career shows that she’s the right person for the position.
