DFL U.S. Rep. Rick Nolan overtaking Republican challenger Stewart Mills in contributions for the first time in two quarters for the competitive 8th Congressional District race.

Dayton said he had been speaking with the MNsure board on an increasingly frequent basis in recent months.

Republican candidate Stewart Mills III outraised incumbent DFL U.S. Rep. Rick Nolan between July and September this year in the race for Minnesota's northeastern 8th Congressional District.

Farnsworth, a special education teacher who lives in Hibbing, has worked on political campaigns and served as a local and state-level party delegate.

Former Duluth City Council president Jeff Anderson, who ran against Nolan this summer in a DFL primary election, will serve as Nolan's district director. Anderson became a supporter of Nolan after the primary. He will now oversee Nolan's Minnesota congressional offices across the northeastern district, including planned offices in Duluth and Brainerd.

Mike Misterek, who served as campaign manager for Rick Nolan's successful congressional bid in the 8th Congressional District, is headed to Washington to work as his chief of staff.

Democrats had an outstanding night on Tuesday. They won back control of the Minnesota House and Senate, picked up a congressional seat, and defeated two contentious amendments that most political observers expected to prevail.

With less than 24 hours to go before polls open, the high-profile race for Minnesota’s 8th Congressional District is still too close to call, according to the latest SurveyUSA poll.
