MPR’s Tom Scheck reports on four DFLers running in Minnesota's 5th Congressional District who debated at the Minnesota State Fair over health care, the war in Iraq, and public safety issues.
The four candidates are competing in the September primary to represent the district which includes Minneapolis and several suburbs in Washington County. They agree on several core democratic issues, but disagree on many of the details.
