Reports from the US show that Ilhan Omar has been reelected Representative for Minnesota’s Fifth Congressional District.
Hodan Hassan has won elections into the Minnesota State House.
Similarly, Mohamed Noor also emerged victorious over his opponents for the Minnesota State House.
Omar Fateh made history when he was elected the first Somali American in Minnesota State Senate.
The four won seats in the ongoing elections in the country.
Ilhan Omar’s reelection is the more impressive considering that President Donald Trump has not hidden his disdain for her.
