My opponent, Rep. Ilhan Omar, is being dishonest and fear-mongering by telling people I'm a Republican and that AIPAC is coming to unseat her. Well, in her 6-year tenure, only two bills she's written and sponsored have become law - both renamed post offices. She can't run on

My opponent, Rep. Ilhan Omar, has almost every institutional advantage possible, including nearly 5x more money. But, it just feels like there is something special happening in Minneapolis and CD5 right now. To riff off a great Minnesotan, if we faced her 10 times, she might win

My name is Don Samuels, and I'm the Democrat challenging Rep. Ilhan Omar in the upcoming primary on 8/13. As a teenage immigrant, America offered me hope and opportunity when I had none, and I've spent my entire adult life trying to return the favor by serving my community.

Another satisfied constituent....oh wait, no, a celebrity who doesn't live here nor is from here. Also, unfortunately, Rep. Omar voted against President Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Act, which has created over 38,300 good-paying union jobs and made a historic investment in

A new article recently asked my opponent, Rep. Ilhan Omar, questions about her payment of around $3 million to her husband in 2020 and other financial dealings, but she continues to refuse to answer. We deserve accountable and transparent leadership.

It's strange, my Democratic primary opponent, Rep. Ilhan Omar, loves to brag about all the big names that have come out to support her, but she keeps forgetting one: apnews.com/article/race-a…

MN-CD5, two years ago I came incredibly close to beating Rep. Ilhan Omar in the Democratic primary. Today, 8/13, I face her again in a rematch. We can win this time, but I need you to vote, bring a friend, and tell a neighbor. We can do this! All polling places are open from 7
