“RightVoter is fortunate to have two phenomenal congressional candidates in Minnesota this election cycle who are running strong campaigns focused on the important issues. Tyler Kistner is a veteran with an incredible story of service to our country. Lacy Johnson is a small businessman posted to put up a formidable challenge to Ilhan Omar.
