Matt Little secured the DFL endorsement for Minnesota’s 2nd Congressional District at the May 10 district convention with 63 percent of delegate support on the first ballot, well above the 60 percent threshold needed. This outcome has positioned him as the clear frontrunner in the August 11 Democratic primary, with traders assigning his candidacy a 67 percent implied probability. State Representative Kaela Berg and State Senator Matt Klein, who finished well behind in the endorsement vote and have both pledged to remain in the race, hold 11.6 percent and 11 percent respectively. The endorsement provides Little with early organizational advantages and signaling from party activists in a district left open by Representative Angie Craig’s Senate bid, though the open primary system allows the remaining candidates to continue courting voters directly until the August ballot.
