Seneta wa Marekani, Ilhan Omar, ameshinda uchaguzi wa awali wa chama cha Democratic katika wilaya ya 5 ya Minnesota, baada ya kupata zaidi ya asilimia 80 ya kura.
Ilhan Omar alishiriki uchaguzi huo bila kuungwa mkono na AIPAC, kundi lenye ushawishi katika siasa za Marekani linalounga mkono uhusiano wa karibu kati ya Marekani na Israel.
============
Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar has secured the Democratic nomination for reelection in Tuesday's primary, CBS News projects.
Omar captured over 80% of the votes in the 5th Congressional District, which she has represented in the U.S. House since 2018. The 5th is the most Democratic district in Minnesota and in the entire nation.
Her opponents were Julie T. Le, Abena McKenzie, Latonya Reeves and Nate Schluter.
Omar, who says a top priority for her remains fighting President Trump's immigration crackdown, won her last general election by 50 percentage points, and the 2024 primary by 13 points. Those are among the reasons why this year, for the first time, she didn't face a major primary opponent.
In the Republican primary for Omar's seat, John Nagel was projected to win with 52.1% of the vote.
