AP Race Update: Republican Kevin Cramer secures reelection for U.S. Senate in North Dakota

0

Republican Senator Kevin Cramer of North Dakota secured his second term on Tuesday, continuing his tenure in the Senate. In this election, he outperformed Democrat Katrina Christiansen, who was making her second attempt at winning a Senate seat. Cramer previously won a closely monitored and fiercely contested race in 2018 against Democrat Heidi Heitkamp, a victory that significantly contributed to the Republican Party gaining control of the Senate that year.

Throughout his political career, Cramer has consistently aligned himself with former President Donald Trump. Trump’s support was pivotal during Cramer’s initial campaign, as he made two visits to North Dakota in 2018 to rally for him. The announcement of Cramer’s victory was made at 9:00 p.m. EST, confirming his status as the preferred candidate among North Dakota voters once again.
