Candidates emerge in North Dakota’s 2020 U.S. House race
Republican U.S. Rep. Kelly Armstrong will seek reelection and already has one Democratic-NPL challenger for North Dakota’s sole U.S. House seat.
Armstrong, an attorney and former state senator, confirmed his intent to seek a second term to the Tribune on Monday. Minot Democrat Zach Raknerud, who works in retail management, also confirmed his candidacy to the newspaper.
A Democrat hasn’t held the House seat in a decade.
Armstrong sits on the House Judiciary Committee, the House Oversight and Reform Committee, and the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis.
