As House Republicans prepared a second censure resolution on Tuesday against Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) over alleged anti-Semitism, some Jewish voters in her district were growing uncomfortable, and her Democratic primary challengers used the moment to remind them they can choose someone else to represent them.
It may be tricky for any one person to represent the deeply diverse district that has one of Minnesota’s highest concentrations of Jewish voters and a sizable Muslim population. Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District, which Ms. Omar has represented since 2019, is home to 11 synagogues and 19 mosques.
